I had no idea that a Spanker is also a type of sail.

One of the most outlandishly unrecognisable examples of Book != Movie has to be The Lawnmower Man
Not that the original was necessarily any better than the movie (both pretty poor IMO) but undeniably a completely different story.
More seriously, I don't even have a computer capable of utilising this wonderful thing but I haven't been so excited about a new piece of technology for some time so will probably invest when the time comes. Let's hope it lives up to expectations.

I spent a year an a half as a recruiter, long before I got into IT properly.
It was a windy road though, having previously had a brief gig as a site engineer (civils), then a year serving pints down the local boozer, going via 10 years with BT (shifting routers and leased lines), then a brief stint at Sound Engineering college before learning (just about) to programme, which has kept me occupied for the last 30 months.

The Citizen Eco drive Proximity never needs a battery replacement as it's solar powered - still has bluetooth 4.0 and the usual functions but doesn't have a power draining display.
Nor does it have anyway of letting you know who is calling you, meaning you still have to fish your 'phone out of your pocket/bag/orifice to check whether you want to answer it.
That makes it completely redundant for the only use-case that appeals to me so far but each to their own.
It's a nicer looking watch than most of the others though.
Your post got me thinking that I'd actually quite like one of those and a quick search turned up this.
"If you observe the aurorae in an appropriate way, you learn something about the magnetic field. If you know the magnetic field, then you know something about the moon's interior."
Cap well and truly d'offed.
95 miles under the surface though? "Cat, are you drilling?"
Prestwick also has a beach as, I'm sure do most of the other candidates.
Surely you mean hadaway is shite?
