    So, yet again my habit of writing casual "on the spot report" emails has nearly hoisted me as they've been passed way beyond the limited circulation I sent them to.

    Fortunately, no blatant jokes, no rants, and the couple of sharp, pointed remarks in there only look pointed if you're "in on it".
    "Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)
    "We were born and raised in a summer haze." Adele 'Someone like you.'

    An email might as well be stuck on a noticeboard at work ... its public **quakes with mock fear**. Glad it was okay.

    I wouldn't find that a problem. It's more the stuck up on a notice board elsewhere where people don't know me, and don't realise "I talked about our procedures and he liked the sound of them" actually means "Our written procedures are really crap (as I keep saying) thank God I didn't actually have to produce them for him to look at..."

    So, looking at the "toobs" to see how people were dealing with the last one, I found:

    Scotland

    Allendale (about 20 miles from here, or 800 miles by road)

    And London...

    So, I'm now on to BT broadband. We shall see how this goes.

    BT only send your stuff out for the day before you swap over, they also claim it fits most letterboxes, so you don't need to be in.

    That'll be why I had to pick it up from the Post Office today of course...
