Hello Richard,
omnia gallia in tres partes divisa est
A lot of folks in northern France seriously dispute that :-)
veni vidi vici
That's what Caesar's writers often uttered. They had to, else they'd be thrown into the lion's cage. That is one reason why I completely lost interest in Latin in school. When his armada got a terrible whooping or was afraid they'd get one his cronies wrote "ahem, the winds were not favorable so we couldn't sail".
Plus it's a dead language. I never understood why they didn't allow us to learn Spanish instead. Nowadays it would have helped me, big time.
Regards, Joerg
