Knowing you've spent the evening and shared a wine glass with someone who's just got a cold, and knowing you are now probably incubating it just before the weekend.

Got a moan from a customers MD, I had not attended a meeting at lunchtime. What meeting? We emailed you the invite at 11:00. Did I accept? no. So what makes you think I saw the email until I had returned from lunch and logged into my computer.

Seriously an hours notice by email, if it was that important I attend, why not pick up the phone and tell me of the intention to hold a meeting.

turns out two others did not attend as being in france, they were already out at lunch (1 hour ahead) when he sent the email.

The cats brought a gift into the kitchen while I was at work. Who killed C0ck Robin? Well we have to wait for the CSIs to arrive but my money is on Iggle rather than Piggle.

Radio 2. Why do they feel the need to ply music in the background of every interview? Bloody distracting.
