    You should see it now. The cloud is nearly overhead and there's a right old light-show going on. Funny thing is, I still can't hear thunder.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Does it have an aperture for a '50 cal machine gun and a close defence grenade launcher asset?

    There is some minor armament out there, but you wouldn't keep an army at bay with it. The serious stuff is in the house in case I need to repel invaders.

    I have my archery equipment in the garage, so if intruders are happy to stick around while I go to the garage, string the bow and set up the bow sight and stabilisers, then they'll be in trouble

    A garden fork is quite intimidating. Got a couple of those in the shed. Oh, and there's the axes too. I stuck a garden fork into somebody once. He survived!

    Been fine all day here in Essex. Was up at 5:00AM and out and visiting two boot sales today. Few drop around 'in the air' at around 11.00AM, and that was all. There may be some rain overnight.

    I've long since worried about disconnecting the antenna from my tuner and TV when there is a thunderstorm. I rely that my rooftop aerials are no higher then those of my neighbours, and that there is a 365' high mast about a quarter mile away from me which is designed to be hit by lightening (and often is - it's at the laboratories where I used to work in radar research!).

    Reminds me of that bit in 'The Battle Of Britain' where the Polish pilot has to bail out and is held at pitchfork-point by angry villagers who mistake him for a German.
