I'm glad I never spotted that!

I remember Gordon Brown caught on camera in The Commons eating some juicy morsels from his nose earlier this year. Yeeuch!

Oh yes - He'd rub his big baldy head and then pick something from the back of it, stare at whatever was on his fingernails and then pop it into his mouth. OK the food at that place wasn't great, but I draw the line at eating my own scabs

"I can't remember what his expertise was"

He didn't have one unless you count picking scabs off his head and eating them

Did he? I never saw that. Ugh!

It's not the same Andy White! There are more than one of them in this world.

Wendigo100 and me used to work at a site with this guy.

Indeed. I can't remember what his expertise was - Tony would know better as they both worked under the Scottish bird.

Why does our government insist on employing expensive second rate suppliers who consistently fail to deliver? We even pay them extra on the contract when thye over run.

I thought Accenture would have turned it down after their last fiasco with the NHS

...and why in the hell were they "sent" in the post - surely they could have gone via some secure server to server process ?

afterall isn't it'the governemnts wish that all it's departments are e-enabled ?

Andy White from the PCG?

What skillset exactly does he contract in?

I can't remember, but it wasn't anything to do with programming computers, so I don't understand Tony's post.

To be honest after having to deal with EDS at one client I can see why they didnt want to bother using them and why it was so expensive.

I could agree with that comment if it wasn't the government who picked them in the first place.

Viz Top Tip:

Rather than send the 50 records requested, why not send all 50,000,000 records and then have the recipient delete all the ones they don't want.

HTH

Wot no letter further down the page detailing the consequences of said action, vis-à-vis Viz top tips

I don't know - the Mr Bean comment seems to have hit the mark

The Mr Bean comment was classic, I think it will stick as well. Nightmare for the Brown PR team

[TimberWolf]

They do have that, and it was only authorised personnel.(

There's column level security as well as row or DB level. That is, that credit card details should have different access rights and seperate views to name and address details.
