With the new comp, I opted for free delivery (within 5 working days) but they've already loaded it into a van to be delivered today. \o/ Mum just called and said it's been delivered! >D This must be the first time in years that City Link delivered something to me without problems. Probably living outside of London helps. When inside London, Royal Mail is the only company that can actually deliver anything (and I'm not counting Parcel Force although they are a RM branch or something like that.)

The comp still needs a name, but maybe later, after it's been put together and run for a day or two, probably it'll try to name itself anyway...

[livejournal.com profile] storme broke me with the mental image of old, giggly, psychotoic and cute Allan and Torgal.

Didn't see any cat outside this morning. I hope it's gone home.

Today I'm completing (yet another) bid submission. Found myself discussing whether there should be a comma in front of the word "and". Boss says that's absolutely forbidden in O-Level English but well, language changes, and sometimes (look, I just did it!) it's easier to read with a comma before, depending on the sentence. That's what I think anyway. With fiction I certainly think it's totally fine. With formal writing maybe I should just stick to the old rules, though.

I don't like April's Fool - judging by the sort of "harmless jokes" people come up with these days, it seems like a day to play with people's feelings and then accuse them of having no sense of humour when they actually feel hurt. Maybe I really just have no sense of humour. That said, there are still some cute stuff out there. I saw the Waitrose Pinana ad in yesterday's Metro and laughed. More details here on the Pinana.
