@ Chr1s - He didn’t own it, he was my line manager. But I’ll let you know if he gets promoted :)

what does a line manager do? run round with a ruler making sure all the lines are straight?
Funny, I have known quite a few managers in my time who were pedantic and petty enough to do just that

In answer to your question it was the cheif of the Oda clan, Nobutada. Who was in actual fact one of the “Great Warlords” of the period.
But I’ve been recently re-reading Sun Tze’s Art of War - but that is pre-Warring States time in China!!! :-s

I see. I hate stuff like that! At least ordinarily I do, but I must confess I did love Shogun :) I mean the book - not the Richard Chamberlain thing!!

Thank God!! I thought you were going to say that was the only reason you did like it.
I must admit I do like things like The Water Margin & Monkey (both stemming from ancient asian mythology).

Hang on though, what is Richard Chamberlain’s position in this company…? He can’t be more that shop steward or something?
