[18:16] <zxmpi> a few places already flooded in last week getting a wee bit more rain

[18:21] <zxmpi> ...or people who use mm/dd/yy... no one will notice in the chaos
[18:21]  * penguin42 hands daftykins a box of jaffacakes as emergency food or floats
[18:22] <zxmpi> and remember the wisdom of adrian mole. cheese. can sink, be squasher or burnt and it's still cheese when recovered :-D
[18:29] <daftykins> mm jaffa cakes
[18:30] <zxmpi> can also be used for bribery in an emergency :-P
[20:53] <daftykins> oof maybe as a last resort! :D
[20:53] <daftykins> hmm wasn't there a useful piece on "how to ask a [support] question" - my friends employee has this terrible habit of being afraid of contacting me, so only deals by proxy using other staff members as their mouthpiece
[21:23] <zxmpi> a simple barter system answers for jaffa cakes might ease their guilt in interrupting you? :-P
[21:24] <daftykins> ah they're all WFH spread across England so they'd have to dropship them to me!
[21:24] <daftykins> we really don't get the cause for the interpersonal weirdness so far
[21:24] <zxmpi> another package for daftykins driving the sniffer dog unit crazy sir o>

[21:26] <zxmpi> daftykins, hence forth known as the jersey jaffa king
[21:27] <daftykins> :O wrong island
[21:27] <daftykins> for shame!
[21:27] <daftykins> unless you mean i rob all theirs...
[21:28] <zxmpi> you'll become their chief supplier hence the title
[21:29] <daftykins> i could get behind that
[21:30] <zxmpi> even the postal service will have to admit the existence of your island :-P
[21:32] <daftykins> cor i wouldn't be so sure
[21:46] <zxmpi> lots of light packages to be delivered to keep them in business.
