    Better still : use anyone other than three!

    Blimey. What is it with me and hotel WiFi? The hotel's WiFi packed up yesterday afternoon. I must emit too many bogons now I'm a project manager.

    The temptation to abandon ClientCo and head for the M62 is great - unfortunately I would then be left in the position of driving back along the M62

    Have a good one folks, and I wish I could join you

    It appears I shall be at a loose end in Manchester all day tomorrow.

    Her Ladyship is off to some professional thing and I'm going too (rather than be at home on my own).

    We're heading off in about an hour, apparently.

    We stopping all day so I can either drivel all day or I could go and say "Hello" to anyone who fancies a small beerette at lunchtime or after work.

    Any offers? Or do I get to drivel instead?

Working...
