Get a plastic dog then. You need the black dog that was on the plans or it won’t be the same :(

funny that you should mention that about the plans… We changed one of the windows on the side, we made it bigger so we can have more light. Coordinator didn’t make a point of it at that time. Now, we want to make the windows on the back a little bit smaller (so we can put a kitchen cupboard under the window), now he says we cannot make any changes to the exterior of the house, because the buildingpermit was granted on the basis of the initial plans. So I said: well, what if they see the window we changed? He: If they notice, you’ll probably get a fine.

now he tells us :rolleyes:

I suppose so.

Incidentally I was frog-marched through Staffordshire recently, and was surprised to read the sign: ‘Welcome to Staffordshire - The Creative County’!!:D

Is that something to do with the county council, or did the sign maker not know what else to put?

Well i suppose “welcome to staffordshire…ooh you made a grave mistake coming here, a GRAVE MISTAKE, you poor misguided fool!” would’ve required a much larger and therefore more expensive sign.

Anyhoo, what you doing in my county??? where did you go??

I was just passing through - I’d been in Dorset and was trying to get home. I didn’t see much apart from the Motorway.

It transpires, however, that one of my cousins and her fiance run a farm park falconry thing in Staffordshire, so I am sure that one day I will find myself actually getting out of the car there.

*does 7 million hail marys*

@Tinne, just disguise the fact by hanging a cleverly altered tape measure up next to the window, showing how it is just the right size :)

we could try that, but we doubled it’s size, so it really shows

Get a huge tape measure, where every ‘inch’ is at least 4 feet long - then your window will appear tiny - especially if anyone tries to take a photo of it :)

we’ll try that, thanks for the advice :)

I’m going crazy here. I’m working with a software to create planograms for shop shelfs. Anyone ever did it? So munch info in it, but so complicated to get the correct info out

it’s the way the products are put in the shelf, for instance for sugar, all the cristal sugars together, all the cubes together, all the 5kg bags together on the floorshelf, stuff like that

Building it graphically is is easy, just drag and drop, any idiot if a key account manager Retail can do it, but it’s the programming of the tabels with all the financial and rotation info that is giving me a hard time

Isn’t that when a big fat lady dressed only in a skimpy wraparound architect’s drawing turns up at your doorstep on your birthday and starts undressing to music…?

Well if it gives you a hard time it has me to deal with!

not possible, it’s a different software, but for programming the tabels, it’s the same logic as excel. whit the IF, COUNT and other stuff

and it works on different levels, so I have a “unit movement” on 3 different levels, but I can only see one in master data, and the other 2 are virtual and only used for calculations, and I haven’t figured out how I can change those virtual ones.

I’m sorry if I have put everybody too sleep from boredom :D

just one more comment about the freaking thing, and then i’ll shut up about it:

the penny has just dropped, it was more like a feather :), I finally understand what I did wrong, and even better, what I need to do to correct it. Did you send me logic-vibes a few seconds ago, because I swear it really was an aha-erlebnis :D

It was a what? :S :D

I love those penny drop moments! One time that happened to me in a lecture. I was a new student, trying to get my head around the idea of recursion (that’s just for Gav’s benefit, don’t worry about it ;)). I must have asked the lecturer about 20 different questions and he had tried a million ways to make me understand, when suddenly it just clicked. The problem was it made me realise how stupid my questions must have sounded and I became totally helpless with laughter - so bad that I had to leave and missed a load of important stuff just because I just couldn’t stop laughing. It’s a good job I wasn’t at work! :)
