No photograph because I didn't feel comfortable taking a camera into the pool at my gym (well, not while there were other people in the pool).  On one wall is a large sign which reads:

Butterfly?  Go on.  Dare you.

Well, it's got me singing, in a hummy sort of way. A bit like Winnie (the Pooh, though maybe Winnie the Churchill was also prone to humming in a music hall sort of a way?) but not quite, obviously. I haven't got any honey, for a start. It's also got me checking theatre programmes.

I very nearly stopped as it looked really good, but I had miles to get through. That was about 70 miles in on my (almost) 100 mile day.

I saw one of them, but I doubt it was the same one, as the one I saw was almost in Lancashire, when I did the re-run of my (still failed) WoTR ride.

Kim, more because I thought you might be able to help me work this wiring out rather than that you might have installed:

Oh, I know what they are, and they are widely used in lighting, but I wasn't sure why they were in a cafe.

I suppose if all the room lighting is run from one switch then they all be on 5A plugs.

I'd assume a switched lighting circuit.  Or possibly, given the proximity to the RJ45s, a hoovering-proof supply for computer equipment of some kind.

No idea what that weird one at the top is, though.   ;)
