    "Because the only party that could do it would be the Lib Dems, and no-one listens to them."

    I don't know - the Mr Bean comment seems to have hit the mark
    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

    I preferred version 1!

      Andy White from the PCG?

      What skillset exactly does he contract in?
      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        Ah yes, that was the best LibDem contribution to PMQs I've ever heard!

          No, at least I don't think so. This is another one. Tony's mentor.

            It would be even easier than that using some kind of query management tool (for use by dumbos or management). And with anything other than a Mickey Mouse data management system, the IT department/DB team would have created ‘views’ to restrict access to sensitive data and grant it only to authorised personnel.

              Viz Top Tip:

              Rather than send the 50 records requested, why not send all 50,000,000 records and then have the recipient delete all the ones they don't want.

                Viz isn't as funny as it used to be. Much like this forum.


                Though I havn't read Viz for years and havn't been on this forum very long. Is it as funny as it used to be?

                    No, it's not, according to Timberwolf.
