Quo Vadis means "where are you going" in Latin, apparently.

Not sure that it needs a question mark though. The ? wasn't used, especially in the current form, until much more recently.

Nice one Lummox.

I wasn't invited to Latin lessons at school, obviously.

Broadie, no problem, I removed my comment when I found myself looking at this tin that I've owned for somewhile. As you say the same depth. I must stop smoking that stuff.
