My workplace was set alight last night, but luckily didn't hit the server room! Still not aloud in there though due to being in the same block, so had to get in early to turn all the servers on as they had cut the power! and have to spend the next few days/weeks working remotely! Praise be web management Cool

Oh, and hi everyone *waves manically*

Would that be either
a. A slightly over zealous chemistry lesson.
b. A slightly over zealous GCSE student partying re: leaving school
c. A slightly failing GCSE student who requires the scores from the coursework to "disappear" and thus get 100%.
d. A slightly worried Mr Balmer watching more market share disappear and believing that God had told him to do it.

Oh, and hi Smile

Do I assume from this and other posts you work at a school?
