He claimed to have done it in four minutes, oh three when he did this time trial that was near Hampton Court in London. It was five days before Christmas. The really interesting detail is that he was naked at the time.

Other times Hampton Court came up

  1. Then after the experiment, the mice who had been treated, the elderly mice who had been treated, remembered how to find a hidden resting platform in a water maze better than the control group. This is the maze that they use for mice these days. I don't know if you know this. It's not like the Hampton Court maze anymore. It's basically. It's a lot smaller these days.

  2. Remembered how to find a hidden resting platform in a water maze better than the control group. This is the maze that they use for mice these days. I don't know if you know this. It's not like the Hampton Court maze anymore. It's basically. It's a lot smaller these days. Yeah. That was just way too big. No, but the standard mouse test these days is either a T-shape or a Y-shape, or it's a tub of milky water with a platform hidden somewhere under the surface.

  3. Yeah, mazes in general, they're pretty good, aren't they? I love mazes. I haven't been a maze for ages. I don't think I've ever been to a maze. Really? Let's all go to Hampton Court. In Germany, mazes are called Irgarten or Error Gardens. How good is that? That's good. There used to be, so mazes grew out of labyrinths, is that right? So a labyrinth is a maze with only one entrance and exit so you can't get lost in it.

  4. It would be especially ironic for him if he had been the one playing tennis and saying, shall we go and get those balls? No, I can't be bothered. They're in the storm drain. That's a good ironic. Anne Boleyn was watching a tennis match at Hampton Court when she was arrested and beheaded. Again. Wow. Not fair to blame tennis. Even if she'd be watching a squash game, they might have still arrested and beheaded her.
