Ahah. At SR it starts to get really busy at this time of the year. By the end of October everybody needs to take all of their annual holiday except two days.

Due to running late with everything since time began (Yes, we still call Broadband "adsl"), you can imagine that all the staff have about three weeks holiday which they now have to take before the end of the month.

I wouldn't say they are "on holiday" but they are not at work. You'll probably find them loitering around the Sunday Sport Boobs of the Year Computer Screensaver Competition with a fag in one hand and a bottle of beer in the other. Just look for the guys with square eyes and loud jangling noises coming from their MP3 headphones. Or listen for heavy metal mobile phone tones.

Either that or they are all out trying to give mouth to mouth resussitation to a certain competitor of ours, who er - seems to be drowning in corporate hogwash!

In Basildon, in that shopping centre where Sava-centre is...there was this girl. These two black guys were following her and her friend as she was so nice. I was hanging over the balcony with a mate just staring. Then she looked up, pointed me out to a mate and then kept looking and in the end smiled the nicest smile ever.

Never forget her.

She was like :-O

In my youth "proper jobs" was a slang term for CRAP
