When I took the day off to give evidence I left an Out-of-office on my email that said "Sorry, I'm not in work today, I'm in court. I might be back in tomorrow."

Not everyone saw the funny side.

Rich tosser maybe - but still a tosser.

That guy looks like Jimmy Nail...

Way-eye bonny lad!

I think I know the sort. An ex.girlfriend of mine has an ex husband who is a blatant, arrogant crook, he lies, cheats, runs hookers, has been done for speeding loads of times yet always talks his arse out of it.

He is a teflon crook..I, and many others are looking forward to the day when he finally goes down. I reckon the police are building the dossier, I do hope so.

Perfect translation mr Griff

Having said that, If I make a mistake it can cause millions of pounds worth of mistakes in a matter of days. My job is completely central to the billing processes for a large independant hospital group in sunny Britain.

I put the word times instead of unit next to a price on one of the tables I maintain so we nearly charged some guy more than £1,100,000 for a CT scan. (It multiplied the basic cost of the scan instead of replacing it with an alternate unit cost - scan at base cost £1,100, insurer cost about £50 less, multiply the two numbers together)

Whoops.

I work for a medical equipment trade journal. Our current issue has the lead story 'It's All Weber's Fault'.
