Mrs wanted to go shopping as it the first day without little boys in 6 weeks.

Arthur C Clarke said the same thing on the wireless last night.

Yesterday was an Induction day for the new employer. Today was getting settled into the offices and sorting staff/procedures. I thought that they may have had time limited web access, turns out that they have no restrictions on time, but unsurprisingly they do have a content filter. I.T finally got "plumbed" in late this afternoon. Fingers crossed, I'll still be able to look in during the day when time allows

Good man.

If they interfere with your access, remember my half price "Slurry Surprise" offer is still open to all members.  whistle:

After a few Young's, I went home, dusted down the old laptop (hat tip to Tel for sorting it) and started writing "The Redundancy Diaries", for no other reason really than to keep my brain half ticking over. It is - I am pleased to say - mindless drivel of the first order. Nothing new there I hear you say!

Job Centre Oik "So you are off the Egypt on holiday, you realise this means you are removing yourself from the job market ~ I will need to report this"

TMR "WOT?"

JCO "Well you won't be available for interviews and you clearly won't be looking for employment or available to sign on will you"

TMR "Listen you jumped up little pip-squeak   angry041:

JCO "SECURITY!"
