    My work is just as strict, in fact I can't believe I can still get on this site.

    They monitor our usage and produce a report on which member of staff has been using the internet the most, ahhhh! I would be in a disciplinary if they found out I was on here so much!

    I keep trying to stick to coming on here on my iphone, but its so slow I just can't keep up with the chatter.

    Unfortunately that's the MoD for you - no ebay, facebook, yahoo, anything that could be remotely construed as rude (this includes figleaves I found out this morning) or anything that could be even the tiniest bit dodgy!

    I hope they never block MSE, what would I do?! :eek:

    Can't believe they do that report on you Woo!

    We aren't supposed to use the net yadda yadda but we all do! Most of our managers are on MSN too, sometimes it's easier than trying to track someone down by phone.

    I tend to run windows in the background but I do more than my contracted hours anyway so it's swings and roundabouts!

    I have my own computer at work and mostly am on my own. But at least they can't block certain pages ;).

    Mine is the same - I work such long hours I dont feel guilty about leaving this page open most of the day! It tends to just sit there in the background, so if I'm stuck on long (boring) conference call I am flicking through at the same time. I should be commenged on my multi-tasking...

    It was looking like Guildford as being a central point for all of us.

    So far, it's me, Jody, Woo, Adam (reluctantly!) and Jules....hope I haven't missed anyone out there! :)

    Morning guys,

    not going to be around much today as loads to do at work and I am feeling really washed out, don't know why but just been told I look quite pale so maybe a touch of anaemia? Just struggling to move/stay awake/breathe :rotfl:

    Perhaps I need a good steak tonight!
