S'not though .... that probably IS where it comes from

From Wikipedia:

Sukhumi (Abkhaz: Аҟәа, Aqwa; Georgian: სოხუმი, Sokhumi; Russian: Сухум or Сухуми, Sukhum or Sukhumi) is the capital of Abkhazia, a disputed region on the Black Sea coast. The city suffered heavily during the Georgian–Abkhazian conflict in the early 1990s.

We didn't have the money at first to set up in a 'nice' part of London, so we chose SE25. CK Holdings HQ is now at NW10 from January, though. :cool:

ETA: We're keeping the original office

May your wood never Crickle...

I'm not sure that means anything but it amused me. I'm easily amused today.

Thank you. I feel like I am playing at being a grown up. Hopefully no-one is going to find me out

I don't know about anyone else but I still feel like that.

Let's precis that ... you want me to have sympathy for your "not really a utility room" in your second home ... when I doubt I'll be able to afford a first home with one.

Right ... I think I've got that.


3'x6' is larger than a lot of main/only shower rooms these days.

No, I was responding to chewy's comment

utility room? that is an alien concept in flats. if there ever was one, then it would have been converted into a bedroom years ago. the only real solution is to put the washing machine in the bathroom, but most bathrooms aren't big enough for that to be an option.

not doing very well today, am I?

Ah ... I'm only a genius at some things .... at others I am often way off the mark

In some other places I have been used to washing machines in bathrooms.

I have a big enough utility ( seems when building it huge) but will still have stacked washer dryer.

The problem with IT is usually that the management have decided how long before they have to set up a new user (say, 3-4 working days) - and the hiring manager doesn't [a] give them enough time give them the exact information needed to set up the new user.

we fill in a form up to 30 days before they arrive and this year
- the account was created but not sync-ed to the network (account active but no access to email etc so could log in but not use the internet)
- the account was not created in time (account prepared before arrival)
- the account had no privileges (can't print to any printer)
- the account was suspended as the status was unknown (it's on the form!!)

I've only had 4 people start this year

and my main supplier is giving me a load of grief this year , they're changing IT systems which means lots of suspensions and we've just run out of something that needs to be delivered by tomorrow. fingers crossed everyone!!
