Yep, it keeps glitching on me as well 
.
They've been teasing me with promises of wisdom tooth extraction for nearly two years now...the top two are gone...the bottom two may be trickier...but I'm not that far off buying a bottle of scotch and a pair of pliers and sorting it out myself 
Oh look it *is* lunchtime. Hopefully the hootoo bugs will have had their fill by the time I get back, and will stop annoying us 
.
Back soon.

Well, it's let me back in at least. I hope it's going to be stable now.

Only just made it back in...but I got distracted trying to trace my Dad's family...

Getting them all to lie down under the paper and keep still must have been a challenge. The pencil would probably tickle, too.

It was getting them up the tree in the first place that was the worst bit.

Did that require a winch? With my relatives it definitely would.

We've just been given the new seating plan, effective next Thursday. I'll be stuck in a cell with my direct boss, and his direct boss. This may mean the end of w*rk-based hootooing, just when I was getting used to it.

I can be very persuasive if I need to be. I inherited the psycho 
switch from my mother's side of the family 
.
Oh Lord, that aint even close to good ? What will I do ??
Who knows, maybe the bosses will be playing as much as you anyway

I shall have to wait until they're all in meetings and things. They like meetings.

Very occasional, but better than nothing...

When they moved me it was right in the line of view of the bosses. These days I know when to sneak in when noone will be around - Hurrah for school holidays

I'll be stuck in behind the photocopier.

Ohhh...staying in the vicinity of the photocopier is always good
Our photocopier's name is Rupert. I decided after spending a week with it for hours at a time I should give it a name

Maybe I should sabotage the copier. The Xerox repair chap's rather nice.

How hard would it be to "accidentally" spill a coffee on it or something 
?

I think that would be rather easy to arrange. Either that, or a pot plant landing on it...
