        Paula is feckin off on Holiday for a week on Monday - I suspect she thinks I'll have it all sorted when she comes back….

        i somehow do love that sentence 😉 and yeah, i guess you´re right about that as well…so let´s hope Paula will have a great week of holidays with whoever she´s going with.
        keep calm G. have a beer or two and take the rest off i´d say (hope it is that easy for ya!)... damn, it´s friday after all and there are enough other ways to get fekked...
        hell, maybe everything is going to work again, if you open the doors of the office in the morning...wishful thinking but still crossing fingers 😉

            Actually, she is going away with her family (20 of them) to a Villa in Spain.  I was invited, but quite frankly I'd  rather chew my toes off and sprinkle the raw stumps with salt unfortunately someone has to run the business….. 😶 😢

                Yes, this exactly. Even back in the dark ages of Windows 95 and local printers hard wired to the desktops, printers were the source of 75% of my work.  The other 25% was "user error"; the unbelievable stupidity of the people having problems with their computer.

                  Well, that's hardly a fair choice, given your deficiency of toes…

                          Giles: you really should meet my dad and watch his PC skills… Told him to aim his mouse at the mid of the screen and he physically picked up the thing and placed it against it... My uncle witnessed that as well and I honestly didn't think either of us was gonna survive the 15 minutes of breathless laughter which ensued...

                            I once had to explain to an older lady in our office how to comply with the command, "press any key to continue".  She couldn't find the "Any" button on the keyboard.

                            If you're past that stage, you're fine, Giles.

                                Yeah, I remember that, too.  That's why I thought she was joking when she called me to ask for help.  I nearly hung up on her.

                                    Actually, it’s 5 nights (4 days in Spain) and there will be 23 of us and of course I am delighted devastated that G isn’t joining us, I will just have to drink his share of cava…
