Wink What's your excuse ?

I'm off work today so have popped on here alot today.
Don't you all have jobs?
Does your IT department screen what you are up to?
Warrens job will not allow him to access 'The dark side' (apparently this is what other similar sites call us all)

At work, nothing to do. Told by boss to 'look busy and play on the internet or something'. I use to web a lot for work so it's no surprise for people to find me surfing (although, admittedly, I can't really count this forum as work-related!). IT dept non-existent, and no strict policy on web use so long as we get our work done

As the one IT teccie bloke we occasionally have spends all day playing solitaire, they can hardly complain

Shhhhhhhhh!

Um, yeah, I'm actually doing my 'thesis'. It's actually a project/advice for a company.

I know the IT department is very busy, so can't imagine them screening us...
And I delete my history/cookies etc every evening.... just in case!

I actually had to request internet when I started here, I first only got email.
My excuse was that I needed to acces my uni email and intranet website.
And of course for research for my project.
Which is all the truth, but still, hotmail and forums are important too!
Since yesterday I'm actually a moderator of a new Dutch Expat forum like this one.(I'm very proud!! ) So, I have to 'check up' every now and again!!

OK, back to work now!

I'm actually quite busy (cos I've been lazying around the last couple of weeks.........)

I'm in Ifield too, about a mile past the new rugby club away from the town.

I couldnt believe how busy the roads were in this area over Easter. (one of the reasons to want to be an ex-pat) I'm glad your friend wasnt hurt.

My excuse? I work at home 50% of the time - and I miss the idle banter of my colleagues
