Yes like most places, you reach your targets and
realise they are not where you thought they were ... |
|
There was a problem with the bread sales, well not
so much a problem. The business wanted the sales weekly, so that is
what they got; strange that as soon as they got that they wanted them
daily ... That's life in IT ... |
|
One or our colleagues was working from home but
for some reason his X-box live account was active - must have had a
visitor, well that's what he said anyway ... |
|
Ian's new orthopeadic chair arrived. |
|
|
|
Jim looks after our EDI systems and he is also known
as Mr FTP ;-) Of course we call him Jimbo so the rest is just plane
obvious - ha ha, what a pun ! |
|
|
|
Ian's desk is a little untidy and doesn't quite
fit with our clean desk policy. Mr Trebus was that scruffy old sod from
the telly, nice chap he was but had a tendancy to collect old tat and
stash ot in his house and garden. |
|
|
|
This was the bourbon v bourbon joke which Ian likes
to tell, something about asking for a bourbon in a bar and being given
a biscuit - I think. |
|
Lincoln bought a bike to get to work, to tide him
over during the summer - I won't say why in public, hic. |
|
|
|
|
|
I left the team, so we thought an advertising space
would be relevant for a while ... |
|
We thought we had rumbled Lincoln with the tweezers
to his eyebrows. |
|
Hmmm, my girlfriend at the time (April 2003) decided
to crash my car whilst on a trip to Germany. |
|
How many times have we heard this expression in
IT ? |
|
Vickers was getting married - the fool ... |
|
Lee Davies, one of the guys in the office, likes
his designer clothes - so much so he has a super jumper with a capital
D on the front, reminds us all who he is ;-) He also likes his alco-pops
when he goes out for a drink ... |
|
Vickers loves his caravaning holidays. |
|
The IS Director found this site somehow whilst browsing
the internet and commented to us about it. Hmmm, I wonder if he got
the spelling wrong ? |
|
Ian Bobbit, our new SAS contractor ... |
|
The Data Warehouse was being upgraded. |
|
Fresh blood for the Data Warehouse team ? |
|
How many ways can you say 'where is the pork ?'
? |
|
Lincoln decided it was time to change his image
so he decided to try various beard formats for a while. |
|
No idea ! |
|
Ian joined the office team as a SAS analyst. Coming
from New Zealand, as he does, his accent and repeated questions were
soon to warrant a spell on the board. He wanted to be on it too ... |
|
I got moved to another office and then there were
five. |
|
Unfortunately there were some redudancies and Colin
bought it, the picture shows how we felt.. |
|
The volume control on Lees phone seems to be stuck
on maximum, as do most other phones in our office. |
|
This ones gonna run and run and run and run ... |
|
Well I never ... |
|
Colin went to Austria on Holiday, by Coach ! I'll
let the picture do the talking. |
|
A poster campaign for an internal office election. |
|
A popular expression from another one of our colleagues. |
|
And another. |
|
And another. |
|
And another. |
|
Another monky film week classic. |
|
Someone in our office feints at the sight of blood.
When the blood donor van came round to collect blood our colleague was
not up to the job and the needle finally did it. |
|
The start of our monkey film week. |
|
Colin likes his Nova Sting and it is a common topic
of discussion. |
|
Do you watch the fast show ? If not you won't get
it, if you do you have got it ! |
|
Some people in IS seem to think you can build, test
and deploy a system in no time, we pointed out this common expression. |
|
I was waiting for my ITV-digital monkey for ages. |
|
One of our colleagues is a bit trendy and has a
jumper with a big 'D' logo, you can guess the rest. |
|
This is how people from Liverpool, well Colin anyway,
prefix their sentences. |
|
Just to run it in we found it even cheaper. Phil
enjoyed the champagne though. |
|
Well where do I start. Phil won this bottle of Champaign
in a raffle. Lincoln offered to buy it for 20 quid, Phil said no and
Lincoln offered 25. Phil started stalling in a state of undecidedness
and we eventually found the bottle on the net for 15.67. Naturally Lincoln
retracted his offer and Phil was gutted - LOL. |
|
Needs no explaination. |
|
We thought about starting a campaign to re-popularise
mr Urdd. |
|
A thought for Christmas. |
|
This shots a bit grainy but it clearly shows Colins
Nova Sting beating Lincolns Lotus Esprit in the 1/4 mile. |
|
|
|
Many of you may remember Jack and his creation.
What a top bloke and that creation on his head is the business. |
|
|
|
Sharp slogans for a sharp team. |
|
Our very first picture. |
