Day 2 of the great E-Payables "Amy Error" correction Our MIS still haven't been able to fix it and it turns out that they've had to contact the helpdesk of the SAP program team to get some pointers... only problem is that the SAP programming team haven't heard of my error before either Whooops

Well I went off it at my sister and a reply all including my other sister and parents last night after getting it in the neck for not getting her present to her in time. Kindof difficult to order an item, have it delivered, present wrap/brown wrap it then send it on to an address I don't have in un der 3 days That and of the things she wanted...there were 2 between 4 people and they ranged from 3x to 5x what I would pay for a birthday present. Got an email from my dad this morning saying I made some very good points  Looks like she isn't getting a present from me to put it simply... I'm not writing her a cheque out of principle... might just get her a play.com voucher and be done with it

If it weren't for the stress relief objects in work the system I use here may make me murderous…I’ve pulled three stress relief stars apart this morning alone  I’ve been told I’m not allowed another one so I've got to make do with the remaining three sections of the last one...

We (the Bat Cave) were recommended to set up a FaceSpace thingy to help with marketing. Well, it took most of a day to set it up, and it still wasn't right. Then we couldn't find any friends, even though they are already BookSpacers. I think it'll be deactivated again, sharpish.
I really can't see what people see in it, really I can't.

unlike MySpacialZone you can't mess with the HTML so there aren't 500 embedded youtube videos in a page which takes 2gb of RAM and 5 minutes to load

You could've outside contracted it to someone you know who's already registered on FriendFace and saved yourself the trouble and strife. It's really not that tough to do, and a good way to keep up-to-date. I'm sure there's plenty of help at hand should you require it. (8+) Mark

I dare say. Batman's had his Farcebook profile for ages, but never uses it. We're not entirely convinced it's the right way to go yet. I've always been sceptical about social notworking [sic] sites, but if we get the angle right it may work for us. Meanwhile, a fleaBay shop and a look at signing up for Amazon... Meh. I'm not geared up for this selling malarkey. I'm just a creative who colours things in.

Bah!! I'm going to get wet when I leave the office in 12 minutes!!  I wonder if the Met Offices change of stance will signal a change in the weather?

I was trying to find out why my Dad's laptop couldn't connect to the Internet today, so I was giving him some instructions over the phone. It turns out in his 10+ years of using a computer, he never knew the "Right click" function actually existed!

All of my Mum's friends pass these sorts of emails around, but I was shocked to find my Mum forwarding this to all of her 200+ contacts today. In Del Boy's words, what an plonker! Peter.

LOL! Zero sector. That sounds like some kind of cheezy american spy film.  I'll wait till I get that off my sister. I got the "ONOEZ MSN IS SHUTTING DOWN PAY TO USE OLOL" one and the "DONT OPEN THIS ATTACHMENT" one which actually did write over the zero sector on her pc  EDIT: http://www.sophos.com/security/hoaxes/sectorzero.htmlHoax you say?

Isn't the Olympic Torch hoax pretty old now? I'm sure it's been around for ages.
