Sorry folks, in an impressively huge mistake, I managed to corrupt thousands of posts in the forums database, and so I've had to restore from the backup made at 6.30am this morning. So that means all the posts made since then were lost.

Regards

In reply to Nick Smith: LOL, you work for the ISP for my workplace dont you...

In reply to Nick Smith:

And today's recipient of the 'Homer Simpson' Award is......

In reply to Nick Smith:
Ooops.
At least you have backups!

In reply to Nick Smith: Ooops - nice one ;(

In reply to Li'l Zé:

"D'OH"

Had me in stitches anyway.

Nick, no harm done, shit happens and the entertainment value was worth it for me...

In reply to Nick Smith:

Hands up all those who now feel their time on this site was wasted this morning?...anyone?...anyone?...

In reply to RS:
Yep but thats everyday isn't it?

In reply to Nick Smith:
Durrr! Dunce cap, smacked botty and stood in corner.

A long long time ago
I can still remember how that website used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make my keyboard dance
And maybe I'd be happy for a while.
In real life I was a loser
But on the web just another user
And it was on this site that I
Found for not having friends an alibi
I can't remember if I cried
When I found out that the site was fried
But something touched me deep inside
The day that Rocktalk died

So Bye-bye, Rocktalk alibi
Tried to post on the site
But I found it was fried
Cyber-climbers stood there trying not to cry
Singin' this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

Did you post on the Thread of Love
And do you have faith in Jude above
If the website tells you so
Do you believe in cyberspace
Can you withdraw frorm the human race
And can you teach me how to type real slow
Well, I know that you're in love with him
'Cause I saw you climbing in the virtual gym
You both had matching shoes
Man, I dig those rhythm and blues
I was a lonely teenage climbing buck
With pink anasazis and a pickup truck
But I knew I was out of luck
The day that Rocktalk died

So Bye-bye, Rocktalk alibi
Tried to post on the site
But I found it was fried
Cyber-climbers stood there trying not to cry
Singin' this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

In reply to RS:

Time spent on here is NEVER wasted, I'm sure all our employers will agree.

In reply to Wingnut:
How the hell did you get that done so quick?????
Graham

In reply to Wingnut: LOL! Superb.

In reply to Wingnut: your a true lyric genius

In reply to Wingnut:

Brilliant! Must keep that for the archives!

In reply to Nick Smith:

LOL.

I though this was funny.

I think Jude's rapidly deleted post effing and blinding about the 'tw*t' who posted up the advert was funnier still.

Still, a nice fresh new forum is no bad thing. It looks purdy now.

In reply to Wingnut:

A work of genius. Utmost respect.

Though it reminds me of something.................

; )

In reply to Graham Taylor:
Far too much coffee!

<*twitches*>
<*dribbles*>
<*runs down corridor making monkey noises and waving stapler*>

In reply to Wingnut: to the tune of 'she'll be coming round the mountain' i assume?

:¬)

In reply to Nick Smith:
It's OK Nick, here's a thought to make you smile: that knackered racer you sold me in 1998 for 20 quid is still getting me to work every morning, with a few squeaks. At least we can rely on good old rusty mechanics, even when the computers let us down...!

In reply to Rothermere:

For a moment it was just like fresh, untrodden snow.

In reply to Wingnut:

that is brilliant wingers utter genius

In reply to Li'l Zé:

Something by Don Maclean perhaps?

In reply to Wingnut:

An oscar, or a gold medal or something, Wingnut!

In reply to Li'l Zé:

Then, as always, someone had to go and wee on it!

James

In reply to Nick Smith:

Dear Nick

I hope you are safer on the rock than on a computer.

Norrie

In reply to Wingnut:
Excellent!

In reply to Nick Smith:

10/10 for effort. explains all those messages i got a minuite ago saying i couldnt connect. any chance of sorting out the server at my work?

In reply to Nick Smith:
The BMC ought to employ you, you could wipe out the last few years, all the Rheged stuff, and they'd be quids in

In reply to Wingnut:

Wingnut, you are as mad as a plastic kipper.

In reply to Wingnut:

How can I print it?

In reply to francoise:
Cut and paste it into text editor (Word?).

In reply to GFoz:

I'm not plastic!

In reply to Kipper:
Watch him. He's a philosopher. Give him a break like that and he'll prove that logically you can't be mad.

In reply to Li'l Zé:

not all kippers are plastic
not all kippers are mad
all plastic kippers are mad
Wignut is mad
Wignut is not a plastic kipper
Kipper may or may not be mad

no contradictions there Indeed largely based on empirical data

In reply to Wingnut:

wow - inspired! Big loud lol.

In reply to GFoz:
Wingnut! It's not a wig, it's all my own! All of it! :

In reply to Alan James, ROCKFAX:

Make sure you print a copy as well, just in case.

In reply to Wingnut:

Wingnut - that is so good, it smacks of a conspiracy!

(How much *did* you pay Nick?)

Nick - nice one - let me tell you about the time I did something similar for the Belgian National Lottery - oops!

In reply to Carless:
I didn't pay him owt - I just threatened to bite him! >::oE
