        What on earth is a suicide fax?

        Who sends FAXES these days?

          The court service seems to not have modernised at all. Wife sends about 400 pages of faxes each month to the courts. Where we have modernised is that we use a e-mail based fax system.

                    So you find yourself standing there thinking "It'll stop, and I can't. Surely it'll stop. It can't carry on. Well I can't stop" and then your shoes are wet.
                    I have experienced that arrangement too. I quite enjoyed the battle of their plumbing against, um, mine. Should I wee faster so I finish before it fills up? Should I wee slower so it's less likely to fill up before I've finished?
