Heres a nice wee poem just for you toots..its from the great scottish poet "William Topaz McGonagall"..its so bad its funny...

Forget-Me-Not

A gallant knight and his betroth'd bride,
Were walking one day by a river side,
They talk'd of love, and they talk'd of war,
And how very foolish lovers are.

At length the bride to the knight did say,
'There have been many young ladies led astray
By believing in all their lovers said,
And you are false to me I am afraid.'

'No, Ellen, I was never false to thee,
I never gave thee cause to doubt me;
I have always lov'd thee and do still,
And no other woman your place shall fill.'

'Dear Edwin, it may be true, but I am in doubt,
But there's some beautiful flowers here about,
Growing on the other side of the river,
But how to get one, I cannot discover.'

'Dear Ellen, they seem beautiful indeed,
But of them, dear, take no heed;
Because they are on the other side,
Besides, the river is deep and wide.'

'Dear Edwin, as I doubt your love to be untrue,
I ask one favour now from you:
Go! fetch me a flower from across the river,
Which will prove you love me more than ever.'

'Dear Ellen! I will try and fetch you a flower
If it lies within my power
To prove that I am true to you,
And what more can your Edwin do?'

So he leap'd into the river wide,
And swam across to the other side,
To fetch a flower for his young bride,
Who watched him eagerly on the other side.

So he pluck'd a flower right merrily
Which seemed to fill his heart with glee,
That it would please his lovely bride;
But, alas! he never got to the other side.

For when he tried to swim across,
All power of his body he did loss,
But before he sank in the river wide,
He flung the flowers to his lovely bride.

And he cried, 'Oh, heaven! hard is my lot,
My dearest Ellen! Forget me not:
For I was ever true to you,
My dearest Ellen! I bid thee adieu!'

Then she wrung her hands in wild despair,
Until her cries did rend the air;
And she cried, 'Edwin, dear, hard is our lot,
But I'll name this flower Forget-me-not.

'And I'll remember thee while I live,
And to no other man my hand I'll give,
And I will place my affection on this little flower,
And it will solace me in a lonely hour.'




and if thats whetted your appetite heres the place for more of the same

On yonder hill there stood a cow

the boy stood on the burning deck
the crew were playing cricket
they dropped his trousers down his legs
and used him for the wicket


boom boom

There was a young man from rhyl
Who swallowed a nuclear pill
His sexual organ was found in glamorgan
And his balls up a tree in Brazil

her knickers all tattered and torn

The man stood on the burning deck
The flames shot up like crackers
A flame shot up his trouser leg
And burned his fxxking knackers

I was planning on taking today/tonight off but i should have known better. Now that our new computer system has been installed I've decided to go in to the office tonight to start building the data base's. We have less than 3 weeks till we go live and there's a lot of work still to do, for the next 10 day's or so we will be hard at it, hopefully this should leave us about a week to train all the call centre/control room staff as well as sort out any problems before we switch off the old system!

Will your local operator conditions allow you to use IVR?

i.e. no destination on bookings.
