They're banning internet porn! What's the most socially respectable way to raise this issue and convey my mortified political objections?

Yeah, they need an Aunt Sally to bash, in an effort to divert attention away from all the other sh!te they're doing.

22 months later I am now part of the corporate network!
Before now I had my personal phone (iPhone 4), personal email address (access anywhere), personal computer (latest Mac Mini, 2.3GHz i5, 8GB RAM) and used the non-company phone line for internet access. Now I have a company phone (Blackberry Bold 9790), company email (access only on the company network & BB), company computer (Dell Precision 370 2.8GHz P4, 1GB RAM). My productivity has gone down the drain! The server is in France and I'm in the middle of Wales, so getting anything off the shared drive (one of the driving factors for getting company stuff) takes ages! A 26MB file took just over half an hour to copy to the shared drive!
I honestly feel I've been taken back about 10 years.

I think a wheel tipper is a big wheelbarrow with an engine. Rear wheel drive so they are very sensitive when driving forwards.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Meant to say rear wheel steering. Dumper Truck / Tipper Lorry  Dumper  Clear as mud, no mention of wheel tipper but as the ad stated HGV + wheel tipper I would assume it meant dumper.

Remember that Fenton moment?
I saw his name scrawled in the dirt on the back of a panel van today. Just made me chuckle is all.

It did along with the couple of ton of limestone I was moving! I jumped off beforehand.
