Register reader stories of amusing and frustrating tech sightings over the festive period.
Which brings us to today s tale – Scotland the Bork.
The story originates in the fair country of Scotland in which, as an anonymous
Register reader observed, the SS Bork pulled up alongside Glasgow s Pacific Quay.
Located next to BBC Scotland (one can take a stroll around the set of Mrs Brown s Boys thanks to Google StreetView if one is so inclined) this particular parking payment machine can be found at the Pacific Quay Premier Inn.

The exception Illegal Instruction looks pretty serious to us, but no amount of jabbing of the screen by our brave reader would make the pop-up go away.
