Yes, I do love them, although once you 9-5 workers finish, I tend to get you lot coming in for Friday-after-work drinks.. which means my working day starts all over again!! Still, if working a 9-5 five day week makes you lot spend your hard-earned cash after 5pm in establishments like mine, then yes i'd agree... WOOHOOOO don't you just love Friday afternoons!!!!

Must admit, this Friday PM was busier than usual for me... in a video conference till 5:00pm so didn't get away early

Love that "boomerang rabbits" expression - must try and incorporate into a few meetings next week.

Are technical briefs a bit like your normal briefs but have pockets for rulers, protractors, calculators etc. ?

Does your miswah like you in your technical briefs ?

this is all making me feel rather ill though..... I'm fighting off a visual.

Silver, I think the reference to a ruler was perhaps unfortunate....although by now he should have 'grown out' of that measuring stage.

Carlos - please do update us on your love life - we've all come this far so might as well know the rest.

Grrrrrr, noticed today I've done nearly 4000 now - positively clapped out

Beemerbird> The ruler reference was quite innocent but I'm now quite pleased with it. What with Carl being an engineer - he's probably got all the right tools
