[flerdle] Was that a specific invitation to nights and me? :-)

[Uncle Korky] The more the merrier! :-)

[UK] First time I read "UK" in flerdle's post I thought of you rather than the country I'm in - the rampant effect of context I assume!

[Tuj] Similarly, I wondered what flerdle might want with me late, possibly in the winter. Moving swiftly along.

It seems MCiOS is down.

[Rosie] It was probably asleep like everyone else at that time of night ;o)

I went to MC⁵ today; it was shut.

It's up but I rarely go there anyway.

Is everyone on holiday? Everyone here in NL is on hols - there's no traffic on the motorways and I can leave home for work 20 minutes later than normal. But the weather here has been lovely (if a little hot at times) and the mosquito population is thriving in the dykes :o(

Factory holidays, love 'em. When I lived in Hilversum it was the same. I was required to take only 2 weeks during July/August which meant that trips to the coast were really easy on the weekends.

Well - I've been on holiday for 11 days, but nothing's changed. Can I go away again?

[INJ] If when you come back your desk is still there, then it's a result. Quit complaining.

[Softers] I was borrowing a desk when I went on holiday. I came back to find everyone else had moved to a different building, but my monitor and docking station hadn't been moved. I don't know if that's a result or not - given that something usually gets lost if you let 'facilities' move it for you.

(Softers) I always regard it as a result if on returning to my car after the pub I find it is still there. On only one occasion has this not been the case and it was recovered about 6 hours later with a seriously damaged steering lock.

[INJ] That little remark is a great example of life mimicking art - have you seen the film 'Office Space'? Just beware when your desk is moved to the basement.

Or the men's room.

...busy listening to the cricket.

Ah, it's finished now. I'm here then. Anyone else?
