That one is implanted in my brain! I can see it perfectly without having to look it up.
Middle of May, 1978. I had just finished my final exams, in computer science, at university.
Scheduling hours and hours of exams for thousands of students within two or three weeks - with a variety of halls and rooms to juggle, class sizes from single figures to well into three figures, and of course some people taking peculiar combinations of subjects - is no trivial task. In fact it was done by a neat program developed by a member of the computer science department.
The best bit about that was that he "fixed" the program so that the computer science exams ended first of all in the university - i.e. they were over before anyone else's. And the reason for this was to allow us to enjoy the Home Internationals, without exams getting in the way.
And what did we get? Willie bloody Donachie

Well I finally got round to transferring some VHS stuff from the 90s onto the pc and then uploaded it to YouTube.
The first 2 games on my CaleyClips channel are:
Stenhousemuir 0-1 Caley Thistle, Scottish Cup Feb 1996.
ICT 2-0 Ross County Nov 1996 (2nd game at the new stadium)
A full 25 minutes of the Scottish Cup tie v Rangers at Tannadice in 1996 will hopefully be added soon!
Enjoy it here.
