Fuck! MrsA left her phone at home today, and emailed me asking for ticketmaster's phone number. I sent her it, but there was a typo. Now she can't get through and the website won't load!

DISASTER!

I misread a 7 as a 1 on the bit of paper it was written on. Oops. I fear my head might roll for this.

I think the plan was we (me and 6 wimmins) were going to Birmingham.

Think about it. Thousands of aroused, hysterical women screaming at the unattainable men on the stage. All that lust and nowhere to direct it.

If I were single, I'd be like a fox in a hen house.

I bought a fuser from PC World in June. Anyway, it went bang after just a few months in the printer.
They're telling my colleague that it's up to HP to replace it, because the warranty is with HP. I'm thinking that they supplied it, so they have to replace it.

Is there any way that they (PCW) might not be responsible for replacing it?

If it hasn't been misused, then it's the reprehensibility of PCW.

Due to totally unprecedented demand all ticket agents have struggled to cope with the number of people logging on to try and buy Take That tickets. The technology available has not been able to keep up with demand however all ticket agents are confident they will be able to process all enquiries so are asking fans to keep trying.

Police in the Maldives are to launch an investigation after a foreign couple who thought they were renewing marriage vows were in fact being subjected to a torrent of abuse....Instead of words of blessing, the celebrant calls the couple "swine" and "infidels" in the local language.....After the ceremony, the couple are taken to plant a coconut tree together, during which various comments are made about the bride's breasts.

I had a terrible night last night and feel like death this morning. But, because I've only been at this place for about a month and a half and have already taken one day off sick in that time, I decided I really ought to come in today.

I do wish I were not such a fucking pussy. I could be in bed swilling lemsip, or possibly even wrapped in a blanket playing Fallout: NV, but no, I'm here, like a twat, at my desk, in my shitty workplace. FML, as the cool kids say.

It's not actually self-inflicted this time. I did have a small bottle of lager last night, but that was it.

It's the funerals wot does it, I swear. I always feel ill the day after going to a funeral. It's like the whole thing makes my immune system go: "well, what's the fucking point then?" Happens every time.

MaliA, good luck dude.

How long have you got to flee the country?

To be fair to you though, you should always have multiple people trying and more than one number/website going at a time. Jeez....

I have, like, 12 tabs open at the moment. Their system just threw me out again...

I got past that bit, said I wanted 7, and then it 405'd on me. Now back at the beginning. Dunno how MrsA is getting along.

I don't want any tickets, but I might just join the queue for shits and giggles...

I got an email from the CEO yesterday sent to a big list of employees moaning about how user error was screwing things up, and how the employees need to think about security more and be more accurate when they do stuff.

He wasn't my CEO, though, he worked for whoever has hsmtx.com, and he missed a 't' out of someone's email address.

I did a reply-all and pointed this out, obv.
