...but lads you forgot the most important law of all, the fourth law which states;

The chances of clear skies on any given night =
Code:
1 -------------- (1/t * c(sqr))

Where t is the time in days since you last bought a new piece of equipment and c is the cost in euro of the aforementioned equipment

Regards and Clear Skies,
