Even older.
I had this neat compass I got for a birthday present - it was a really nice vintage one, made by some company called 'Tates'

Whenever I used it though, I always got lost. One day I noticed than at sunrise, the compass said North was the direction the sun was rising - clearly this was a crap compass.

Later, I learned that he who has a Tates is lost, which explained everything.

Crap, now I'm late for dinner.
