    Nice !

    With high-speed front and rear access ?
    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

    C.S. Lewis

        You lot took a while.
        Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

              Always very smart, but no designer stuff. Only outward sign of contractor-dom is a very expensive Breitling watch. You should just see the permies eyeing it up when you're talking to them at their desk. After a few months, usually, one will pluck up enough courage to ask about how much it cost...........

                I got one of those for Mr P - it cost me £5 in Turkey and keeps perfect time.
                I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

                    My mate always boasts about his 4 grand Rolex. RUR4000.

                    I think he broke it when he wore it in the shower.

                      I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.
