Water-coolers are popular in the way that puns about feldspar aren't! I see where I've been going wrong now!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, a warm welcome to Wyndham! I created that piece of alliteration especially in your honour. You can find earlyman's blog by clicking on "Reptilinear" (no, I don't know either) on the main page there. <BR/><BR/>And cello, you only need to worry if you overhear gossip that you shagged Nigel from Strategic Procurement, when you're pretty sure you never did.patroclushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01933476561340044351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607123.post-1118435562402985752005-06-10T21:32:00.000+01:002005-06-10T21:32:00.000+01:00earlyman, I am honoured.

And he could be right because he always seems to be pissed in the afternoon.Wyndhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06682812260329010391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607123.post-1118417232582108822005-06-10T16:27:00.000+01:002005-06-10T16:27:00.000+01:00Ah, water-coolers.

I always prided myself on being able to wee once in the morning and then not again until I got home. Unless I'd been out on the piss the the IT boys. But now, I have to risk the company loos several times a day only to overhear inane chat about who's shagging who in the office. Not actually *in* the office, you understand, though sometimes there's a bit of that.<BR/><BR/>And then the comapny finds that the excessive kidney functionality means it's using extra loo paper, and the toilet seats get knackered, and the whole fragile eco-system breaks down, all because of that damn water-cooler.cellohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17061833787120469657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607123.post-1118402445293919692005-06-10T12:20:00.000+01:002005-06-10T12:20:00.000+01:00At our work we are under strict orders not to repl...At our work we are under strict orders not to replace the water-barrels on the water-cooler unless we first do a health and safety course on how to lift one. Needless to say this jolly directive has been enthusiastically ignored.<BR/><BR/>Regards<BR/>WyndhamWyndhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06682812260329010391noreply@blogger.com
