    The agency I'm currently doing work through use Echosign, so I can try to scrawl my signature using a mouse... yeah, that turns out well.
    The free nitro PDF programme allows you to insert an electronic signature. Someone on CUK kindly advisedme when I was on the train on way to 1st day of contract, allowing me to download the programme, find a copy of my signature, sign the contract and email it back before starting. Hooray for the modern world and CUK (although strictl yspeaking, CUK is a subset of the modern world, but let it go, let it go).

    And this is a guy that doesn't even know how to sign a contract.....

    It's a sad story really. I hope the meds help a bit sassy.

    That's the definition of sadness

    I genuinely feel sorry for you.
    A grown man who uses "Your mum" jokes and has proved innumerable times he's thick as two very thick planks.
    You're like a Viz character : "The man with the unfeasibly small brain".

    You do make me laff though, so all in all your contribution is positive

    His mum scans it quickly before the ink splurges into a single grey mess.
