[12:28] not much off for 5 days:D [12:29] :) [16:55] heck it's wet out there [17:04] i live in ireland you insensitive clod :-) [17:05] I'm next door in Manchester - it's your rain that's making us wet! [17:07] well the clouds are a lot less burdned after dumping on ireland all last week. flooding in a few places and still raining [17:08] yeh, some flooding a bit further north from here [17:09] of course then you have all the people living on flood plains complaining they can't get insurance... [17:10] that'll be because it's a *flood plain* [17:10] if you put a carpet on the floor of a house in a flood plain don't expect it to last... [17:11] the answer is probably to buy all those ruined homes up cheap and knock them down and replace them with homes on 8ft high stilts [17:12] in ireland that would be asking for the wind to relocate it. a houseboat resting on blocks would do nicely [17:13] enough concrete would fix that? [17:13] you'd think so, but no :-) [17:14] hmm [18:26] Must admit, I feel guilty listening to the audiobook of this as I'm driving round back & to to work http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flood-Stephen-Baxter/dp/0575084820/ref=pd_sim_14_1?ie=UTF8&dpID=51DBIn9VI8L&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR99%2C160_&refRID=194CENF42H8S1EPVADRT Especially after the damage in Cumbria last week & ongoing [18:44] reading the book wont make it any worse [18:45] Logically, I know, but timing is always great === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [18:45] DJones: Of course you make me feel better for working at home - no commute! [18:46] I;m still waiting to find the book where the reader wins the lottery [18:46] Been there, done that, I prefer working in an office [18:46] * penguin42 has been working at home for 2 years now [18:47] I did it for about 2 years, but being based in an office and having support around you is less stress [18:48] oh I prefer being at home and not having to deal with office politics [18:48] We don't have office politics,there's only a small team [18:49] Everybody gets on and does their job, but can call on others for support [18:49] no commute, no office politics, full control over the temperature and environment, no rules about where I sit [18:49] The only thing I miss is not having my dog at my feet in the office [18:49] Seperate offices, so temperature is adjustable by person [18:50] oh that's not too bad [18:50] and while I work at home, I still work for a large company, so they're all on internal irc, normally someone around to ask [19:28] :D [21:22] cat in photogenic pose: http://i.imgur.com/FAejB7H.jpg [21:22] mine, that is :> [21:32] my photogenic cat is currently facing away from me. you can get a cat butt pic?
