    Of course that's not me......, you don't honestly think any attractive females would bother wasting their time on here when they could be out spending some rich old man's money on Fendi handbags do you?

    She is indeed an extremely attractive 'creature', and her moody looks are fully understandable given her situation at the time (hint: she's an actress)

    BTW, I'm in sunny Glasgow today if you still harbour any underlying interest in my whereabouts.......

    I can confirm that any such rumours are as unfounded as the rumour of someone posting something of value on this board.



    No idea where the big fella is. Maybe he is janey's new boyfriend and she has worn him out...

    Hey TLG. Hiding behind a MOUNTAIN of work.

    I have been 'engineering' a 'ramp up' of my 'workstack' with my current client to 'tie in' with the end of my contract such that the likelihood of a lucrative extension was increased.



    In short, I have tons on, so Xeno's idling time has taken a battering.

    started a topic The permies are quids in!

    The permies are quids in!

    Manager has just swaggered round the office handing out those grubby perforated edge envelope things they put in Sunday paper's supplements. You'd swear they all got golden tickets and not another 50 quid net per month! Bloke next to me has already got the calculator out to see how much more debt he can buy....
