If you always do, what you have always done.

You will always get, what you have always got!

"He/She's the kind of person who knows everything about nothing and nothing about everything!" Not sure who said it originally but my Grandad always did!

"Military intelligence is a contradiction in terms." Groucho Marx

"I've got a crick in my neck - it comes from sleeping next to a open french widow" Mike Harding.

Final thought on keeping things simple; "NASA spent thousands researching into and finally designing the biro so American astronauts could write in space. The Russian astronauts simply took pencils!"

When somebody asks "Can I........"

Reply: "You can, but you may not"

(I love that one. I used to have a teacher who used it and the puzzled faces of people as they tried to work out the difference was classic!! :D )
