    Wish I'd seen that earlier.

    There are some interesting thoughts over there about the ASA article, though. And lots of adverts.

      Simple answer.

      Wait till March. Get ABCe to audit them and CUK here. Its like celebrity boxing only with internet sites.

          My comment was a sarcastic reference to the fact that ContractorCalculator were making a claim and it was they who objected to a CUK claim.

            When I was whingeing about ClientCo the other day - whilst shooting Eldar for entertainment - her Ladyship asks:

            "So ... when does your current contract end?"

            Zap. Dakka dakka dakka.

            "Dunno. Errm. April 4th."

            Boom. ... builds an armoury ...

            <click> "We're going on a 2 week cruise starting the next day."

            Woosh. Crash. Pow. Dakka dakka dakka.

            "We are? OK."

            Kaboom.

            "Yes. I just booked it. Mediterranean. Suite with balcony."

            ... sends a bunch of space marines at their relic site...

            "Good girl. I'll let the pimp know I'm not extending."

            ... takes out their leader with a well placed missile launcher / sniper scout team combination. Captain BrowneIssue FTW!



            Noooo, it's not about the money. It's about making up your own conditions of service too.

                  Wonderful games, although SoulStorm was a bit of a disappointment with the Dark Eldar having no gateways....

                  Looking forward to DoW2

                    Just pre-ordered that from Game last night. Erm, for the kids.

                      What is the difference between "pre-ordered" and "ordered"?
