Big Boys Need Love Too!

[abz]

who are you calling the resident alien!!?! better watch out jim or your secret will be out!!

 

[Jim]

Damn, and I thought it was love.

 

[abz]

hee

 

[Jim]

I've got a tape drama here, the tape rewinder has eaten one of the tapes from the caddy. Great!

 

[abz]

backup tape jim? that's a sod and a half!! or are we talking neil diamond's greatest hits here?

 

[Jim]

yes a backup tape abz. Our file server now needs for tapes for the backup, so we have a tape feed caddy and rewinder. Now and again it the rewinder eats a tape and it's s real mess. LOL. Not that I'm having to sort it out mind. Duty dork is doing that.

 

[abz]

duty dork? who on earth is duty dork?

our tapes on occasion just refuse to rewind and eject... it's a right sod...

[Jim]

The duty dork is the guy (Stefan) who buggered up the backup on Monday abz.

 

[** Just Jools **]

Good morning all, WYSIWYG is a spell from the arcane world of IT, it's only known by us IT wizards. Knowing it can be harmful for non IT Initiates.

As our lovely alien abz says. I'm it.

:8855: I know what that means. BIL uses it all the time!! Guess that makes me special since I'm not an IT wizard!!! x

 

[Jim]

LOL LOL Hi Jools, how are you my lovley.

 

[** Just Jools **]

I'm good thanks. Aching from all my exercise, but that's a good thing!

How are you two? Have fun I see! x

 

[abz]

that's a bit of a cruel nickname jim still. i find it rather amusing... did he mess up this time too or is it just one of those things?

abz xx

Abz - How can you side with someone who calls you "resident alien" for heaven's sake?

Jim - Being in the know hasn't harmed Jools - so spill the beanz and don't be such a meanz - talking of meanz - how could you call that poor lad "duty dork"?

 

[abz]

and more to the point, do you call him it to his face??!? poor guy.

give it a quick google gem. you won't go wrong

 

[Gemstone]

Google sorted it - thanks Abz. That's really good - I had the web building program with that name and had no idea what it stood for but it makes total sense doesn't it x

 

[abz]

it does indeed gem. it's all about being able to see the end result

and i think we're all fairly wysiwyg. wouldn't change it for the world

I find with web building the instant thing is much better than playing around with the html - my daughter in Wales is good at that and has tried to teach me bits. There's a site you can go on that makes it easier but it is SO time consuming and mind-boggling - the achievement when it goes right is great though x

 

[abz]

oh don't i know it gem. i have a happy dance

 

[Gemstone]

I haven't played with html for about a year - I've totally bottled when I need to change anything. No, let's have some honesty here - my eldest daughter has threatened to change all the passwords on my site if I give here another mess to sort out!!!!!

 

[abz]

ha. that sounds about right gem.

i was about to say i don't use html much, but i'm totally lying as i'm writing a database with a web form to use it, ha. but it's all rather simple html stuff that i'm using. it's the several other languages i have to use at the same time that are the crappy bit!!
