I wish someone would explain to Mrs HC that heating is not free! We are not on mains gas, and it costs around £600 to fill our tank. I come home and it is like an old persons home - you could cook food on the radiators!!Originally posted by zeitghost View PostI haven't turned the central heating back on yet... I've got a couple of those heat pads from Lidl to keep me nice & toasty without using much energy (100W per pad).
It's more economical...
Nope, made it. Spooks was very good.Originally posted by zeitghost View PostAnother one bites the dust...
Right anyway, now for a trip down to the coal face. Production line it is..... if I'm not back in 30 can someone send VF to find me. Ta.Comment

Ok thanks...Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostMorning Zeity
How are you?
I left one of the lab windows open last night...
It should wake the kiddies up a bit when they come in at 11...
Though not as much as when I left it open the last time & it was very frosty....
Some of them were writing with gloves on....

I'm not moving from within 2 feet of this wall heater. Even for the toilet.Originally posted by HeliCraig View PostMorning VF. Thanks for joining us. Put the kettle on will you - it was cold out there (just been over to North Works....)

Well it can only improve the smell I suppose.Originally posted by voodooflux View PostI'm not moving from within 2 feet of this wall heater. Even for the toilet.

Nope, he is fresh back from an ITIL course and has been tasked with reviewing the documentation for this fine system. We have now managed to turn this into "appraising" various documentation systems - what an A grade stroker.
I am sure I was not that useless when I finished Uni. At least I made the tea.Comment

What, that big pile of post-it notes?Originally posted by HeliCraig View PostNope, he is fresh back from an ITIL course and has been tasked with reviewing the documentation for this fine system.
Which is more than you do now - I think you've "deskilled" whilst at ClientCo. I'm pretty sure I have - not that I had many skills to lose.Originally posted by HeliCraig View PostI am sure I was not that useless when I finished Uni. At least I made the tea.Where are we going?

Thems the ones. I would have thought that typing them into Word and the publishing as a PDF would have been sufficient - apparently not. The little tulipe.Originally posted by voodooflux View PostWhat, that big pile of post-it notes?
Not true. I bought a new kettle the other day. But you are right in the latter half of your statement - I too had few skills to loose. Now I have fewer. Where is my renewal?Originally posted by voodooflux View PostWhich is more than you do now - I think you've "deskilled" whilst at ClientCo.
