And it has made me realise that I'm a bit crap really. My Dad was a technology teacher who used to make furniture in the garage and repair his own cars. He tried to give me the 'building things' bug by getting me to help him with stuff, and even came up with little projects like making a mini steam turbine. It never took, though, and I grew up bookish and quite impractical.
The actual answer is therefore probably something like a really complicated spreadsheet. It's all a bit emasculating, really.

Although sadly I wasn't even lucky enough to become bookish. Just a lazy twat.
