    No work for a week.

    Due to delays in clientco's software deliveries I'm now out of work for one week. I have taken drastic action to resolve this serious issue;

    1 Set up inflatable pool http://www.qualityinflatables.com/im...57981large.jpg in garden
    2 Drive to wine merchants to purchase 5 cases of Muscadet.
    3 Continue on to butcher´s shop to purchase quality Parma ham and salamis.

    Shall report from time to time on progress.
    And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

    Dont forget to set up the video camera in case your pool has one of those "You've been framed moments".

    Enjoy the break.

        Anyone else thinking this sounds like it could turn into some weird self loving shenanigans with the potential for suspicious death at the end?

            Good stuff. I salute you on the preparedness of your continuity plan and your readiness to carry it out without complaint.

                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus

                    Indeed. Rather looking forward to sitting under my favourite tree with a glass of wine, some salami, TMS on the radio and a pool to jump in if it all gets too hot and tiring to bear.
