It’s not over yet

Ah joy. My earlier optimism was obviously very mis-placed.

OK, I admit, some of it is my own fault – I didn’t read the paperwork properly. To operate legally in the UK, a limited company has to have insurance – liability insurance, employer’s insurance, and (ideally) professional indemnity insurance. Now, I work in IT – and god only knows why I ever trusted RBS to sort out the insurance, but I did – and when I finally read through the reams of gubbins that came with the insurance policy, Particularly the “bits that we don’t cover” part.

Yes, in a piece of true professionalism, RBS have managed to sell me professional liability insurance that doesn’t cover IT work, computers, programs, or information. And they can’t sell me any, because their underwriters don’t cover such a policy.

So I’ve got to shop around (again) for insurance, and fight the useless cunts to get back the money I’ve spent on an insurance policy that was useless, and that they knew was useless from day one.


Google Fun

Now, I know I’m probably the last person on the planet to know this (Sometimes I amaze myself with how little I look deeper into sites etc.) but – did you know you can make Google do all of it’s message in “Elmer Fudd” style? Hahahahahahahahahaha.

No, not through the Dialectiser, but within the actual Google preferences. Look in the drop-down list of languages, where you can tell Google how you want the messages to appear. In there there’s Elmer Fudd, Bork (Swedish Chef from the Muppets), Hacker, and several others. Select the language, save the preferences. Lo and behold, Google has been Elmerised. It’s not perfect, but it’s still fun. And yes, I’m a geek.
