    They were M&S Belgian chocolate biscuits so can't complain although I'd rather have had a box of Peek Frean's Trotsky Assortment.

    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!”

    After some extensive research, it would appear that most biscuit names sound better when said in an Alan Bennett voice.

    Especially Mbintire, someone ought to shave his head. Then put it in a microwave.

    Bit awkward if he's still attached to it though.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Which reminds me if the old joke about the Scottish couple winning the Lottery.

    'But Hamish' the woman says 'whit shall we do aboot a' the beggin' letters?' 'Keep writin' em!' her husband replies.

    NB. I am (half) Scottish so am allowed to make stereotypical jokes about Scottish people.
