Rosie's a bloke? Well, stone me!

[Phil] we all wondered why you had been flirting with him for so long.

(INJ) Chalky sussed me out immediately, years ago. But like me he's pretty astute.

Rosie's astute? Well, stone me!

(nfras) Hmm, not quite astute enough to be absolutely certain that you got my joke. Grovelling apols if you did. This is getting so elliptical it's in danger of disappearing up its own latus rectum.

Rosie's a stoat? Blimey, my whole world is crumbling sound me!

Well, there you go Philippa, it just shows you shouldn't jump to conclusions.

What a silly old gal I am. "sound" should have read "around".

[Rosie] The joke was received and understood, as I hope mine was :)

I forget that I've known some of you lot for nearly 13 years, and what might appear plain as day to me is unfathomable to others. (THIRTEEN years???!!!)

Those of you who noticed Friday evening's outage (I certainly didn't) will be reassured to know that it was "triggered by a spanning-tree topology change [creating] a broadcast storm". I presume this refers to platform alterations on the Circle Line prompting unladylike outbursts from Samantha.
