Weird noise just started up: like a really loud continuous rattling, as if somebody was pushing a dodgy trolley full of loose rubble around the place.

Turns out it's torrential rain falling on skylights over at the canal side of the building

Hope it stops before I go

That will be the torrential rain we had hear about 2 hours ago then

I remember an appointment with the doctor where the noise of the murrain of beasts falling on the skylight was so loud we had to shout to be heard.

Just as well I wasn't complaining of a sore throat or laryngitis.

Started last Tuesday, still no login details. I wish I could say it was an easy way to earn money, but I'm bored as hell and I'm a little worried by the state of the project so far so not being able to get in and poke around isn't really making me feel better.

In other news, I'm starting to wonder why I even bother going to General - it's like the Daily Mail but with bigger words sometimes.

Because if you don't present a counter-argument, they'll convince themselves that their view is reasonable and widely held, as no-one disagrees with them

It's the one shot generalisations that wind me up.

Notice they don't make much noise about it when you actually challenge them

If you need to shoot done a generalisation just add underneath the quote..

Thought the rain was back, but turned out this actually was a dodgy trolley

It's got an elevating platform; there's now a bloke about twenty feet in the air near my desk, looking at a light. (The light is on.)

That's not bad: tweeted at my bank about a problem with their mobile app. Got a reply in less than eight minutes

It didn't actually help much (basically just "We know it's broken, sorry, it'll be fixed eventually") but still, pretty fast response
