    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!”

    Talking of Casio.. Another GA100. Second one I received where the analogue hands weren't synced to the digital time, they are now.

    Really like this watch but the unyielding rubber strap it came on was awful and made it just about unwearable. Now swapped for a nice soft leather job.

    Rubber straps can be a bit tough on some pieces. I have a box of soft rubber straps in various sizes just in case. I always favour a bracelet though. I have them on all my pieces.

    I actually do the opposite with my 'cheapies' (including a lot of my Invictas) and take the rattly, tinny old bracelets off to replace them with leather, sailcloth or ND Limits straps depending on the style of the watch. It can transform the appearance and wearability of an inexpensive watch.

    This Pagani had a terrible sharp edged, stiff linked bracelet.

    It is handy for the cheapies, although I don't have anything 'that' cheap so to speak. I don't have anything expensive either however.

    Never mind, this one has three time zones showing at the same time look! With what I paid that's a little over two quid a time zone. (got it for novelty value more than anything else).

    Nice. I only need two time zones though; GMT and Norfolk.

    It's the same time of the day in Norfolk, just fifty years ago.
