@markwyner it's awful when you have to go back month by month for 60 years (720 clicks = rsi) on a calendar, but if the date format is unfamiliar say mm/dd/yyyy instead of the more logical dd/mm/yyyy or International Standard yyyy/mm/dd, it's a bind.

@bodhipaksa my grandparents had it, Izal, as it was medicated, whatever that meant. I thought I'd seen the last of it when they moved to live with us when I was 10, then as a teenager we went camping at a Forestry Commission site in Dumfries and Galloway. Yup, I experienced the delight of it once more, this time with corporate branding.

@ChrisMayLA6 my children have just been discussing their student loan repayments, and are not happy! One was told it was just like another phone bill. Not at >£250/month!
