I hope there was an extra discount given for those where it was impossible to open the pages due to a liberal amount of man paste having been applied.Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostDoes anyone really do any work in Denmark? it's the only country I've visited where I saw a shop selling second hand porn mags.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.

It doesn’t really bare thinking about. It was a good gig in Denmark though; 6 weeks in the smartest hotel in Arhus, evening meals in a brewery, huge drinks bill picked up by a telecom company, freshly baked cakes at 11 o’clock every morning, first class return flights and I can’t remember anyone doing any work. This was in the dot-com days of course.Originally posted by TonyEnglish View PostI hope there was an extra discount given for those where it was impossible to open the pages due to a liberal amount of man paste having been applied.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?

Like I said earlier - expect fuel duty to be the first to rise. Now it will be done under a "we're being even greener" banner."Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny. "

If they keep raising fuel taxes they’ll have to cut speed limits to 15 mph and fine all the cyclists.Originally posted by Ruprect View PostLike I said earlier - expect fuel duty to be the first to rise.

When I pop around for a meeting it always seems like half the company has left already and the rest are at home on their paid time off when the kids are ill.Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostDoes anyone really do any work in Denmark? it's the only country I've visited where I saw a shop selling second hand porn mags.
So, no.

No..... we need 98% tax that we had in the 70s under Labour. HMG knows much better how to spend our money than we do.
