      That's rich coming from you. You didn't mind spreading the lurgy when you and RC were infected.

        To a couple of 3rd year esteemed customers who should, by now, know this tulipe off by heart*.

          I think the most depressing thing was the request for a book on PIC programming.

          For feck's sake, you're supposed to know about that after the 1st year.

          Maybe he/they'd like to sit in on the PIC programming course I'm about to run.

          Or maybe it'll be too difficult for them.

          One of the two geniuses (genii?) couldn't actually generate a project.

          Despite the presence of the project generation wizard.

          I despair.

            ho, hum... emails to the agent appear to be going to outer space as he doesn't appear to be reading them.

            He's also on the phone a lot and hasn't had chance to return my calls

              How odd.

              It's surprising how often that happens.

              Or he's out to lunch (aren't they all).

                Oh well, used an otherwise tedious 5 minutes to marginally improve one of the (10 year old) esteemed customer built line following robot thingie.

                We seemed to get a rather more capable esteemed customer in those distant days.

                  We've got a line following robot thingie (Mr N is doing his MSc in Robotics and AI).

                  It also doubles up as a cat chasing thingie which I don't think was part of his assignment, but gave much amusement.

                    You had a 10 year old esteemed customer? He certainly must have been capable.
