Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

At the risk of cursing my next business jolly, all my recent flights have
been bang on time. :P


Stranded anywhere interesting Corpy?

Not interesting so much as comfortable. Luckily I checked my flight status before I left home. :wink:

We rarely bother with such common sense where I work.
Of course the majority of staff get paid travelling time, so there is
an upside to having to sit around airport lounges (as long as it's
going to the job and not returning home).

Recently, I managed to persuade the company to spring for a full
price ticket to allow me to change the return flight, the argument being
that it would save paying out travelling time.
Very altruistic of me?
Not really, it also entitles you access to the BA Courtesy Lounge, where I
spent a very pleasant two hours (We were finished very early) being
paid to drink free Jack Daniels while reading The Guardian.
If only every day at work could be like that!

Off to play ;D

That garage's just by where we live; we'd been out for lunch. (Yes I know you said evening. Saturday lunch tends to turn into an all-day drinking binge) :lol:

And yet again. See y'all after two glorious weeks of all play and no work.

And I hope everyone has a happy New Year! There are three wonderful things I've accomplished in 2004 that I am eager to celebrate...
