    Brilliant, Barry. Good gadget.
    I once worked for a shipping company, where, a couple of times a month, the boss would treat the staff to a Chinese take away from a superb local Chinese restaurant. However, there was one, tiny, yet important rule: you had to eat with chopsticks. My boss had spent a lot of time in Hong Kong, and used them all the time. No stick skills: no takeaway, simple as that. I learned damn quick, as you might guess.
