    I won't be swayed by any other favours either.

    I've lost track how many years I've been about now. Like Zak said it most likely comes down to me or Coco for being here the longest. I don't look at myself as senior in any way, we are all part of a great team that I love being part of.

    I work long hours in my job but I am always about when needed and why I am about this time of night as I usually finish pretty late.

    As for the Bake Off, bit unfair really as I am actually a Chef by trade!

    The reason I posted this is that some people don't seem to be aware of that, because I fairly regularly get PM's that only a mod, or more likely admin, could answer, including several in the last couple of days.

    Such requests dont bother me as such, but as I might visit Hexus several times a day one week, and not at all the next week, people PM'ing me for Admin assistance need to be aware that :-

    1) I can't help them, even if I wanted to, and
    2) I might well not even see the request for days ... perhaps weeks .... so an answer may well not be exactly prompt. And that makes it looks like Hexus aren't responding, when in fact they know nothing of the query (and I don't either), and
    3) I don't always even think to check PMs for messages.


    So can I suggest that anyone wanting assistance from a Mod or Admin is better served by asking one, not me, as all I can do is refer them on.


    PS. I left the admin team, for reasons involving solely my personal circumstances at the time, oh.... only about two years ago. So to those that think I'm still on the team .... wakey wakey.

    But sara who else will solve all my day to day issues.

    Eg what to have for breakfast ?

    Yeah why not? Job swap for a day can't hurt anyone !

    Hardware isn't a problem as I can get around inside the box no worries, however the software is a bit of a different matter. I know how to find the faults and most cases fix them on Windows since 3.1. Doing the net SQL thing though is a bit above me !!!

    I'll rebuild the SQL Cluster..

    Of course, I make no guarantee that it will work again afterwards..

    But then again I suppose there's no guarantee that the cake will be edible either
