Eeermm .... it's going to take a while to warm up to working temperature (mid October maybe :? ). So not much to see unless someone falls off their bike cycling round it with a thermometer :lol:

Some theorists predict a mini Black Hole will be created which will grow and expand as it swallows up the universe around it. :shock:

From the land which gave us cheese with holes .... :lol:
