  2. In the most recent chapter in my ongoing serialized memoir, I included a photo from the 90s showing the then-in-progress demolition of the office block that housed Odin Computer Graphics, along with the approximate locations of the 2 offices we had. On the first attached photo, #1 indicates the location of the first Odin office in Steers House, and #2 indicates the location of the second office in Mulberry House. I've also attached a Google Maps screengrab of the area today, from approximately the same viewpoint, which shows the Hilton Hotel, right across from the Albert Dock. Clearly a piece of prime real estate!
