ping: Ian Smith
So there I was, visiting a consulting engineering firm with offices in
a high street in Surrey. I parked round the back to unload my big box of samples and spied a Trice (I think). Got inside and chatted with my contact, who said the Trice belonged to a member of their staff called Ian Smith. Seeing as they do consulting on railways and you talk in chains, I reckon that's you that is. So you missed out on the free sandwiches. Tim -- Blue Witch laughed at me |

Got inside and chatted with my contact, who said the Trice belonged to a member of their staff called Ian Smith. Seeing as they do consulting on railways and you talk in chains, I reckon that's you that is. Could well be, could be. At least, I don't know of anyone else matching that description, and I did miss a seminar at lunchtime. So you missed out on the free sandwiches. I'm told there was lots of egg left. I intended to be there, but was unfortunately delayed in an earlier meeting with the company accountants, who didn't give me any food at all (though, of course, they'd probably have charged me 250 pounds an hour to assist in eating any sandwiches they did provide, so probably for the best). Bother. You were nearly the first urc'er I've met in reallife(tm). regards, Ian SMith -- |\ /| no .sig |o o| |/ \| |
