I've just cocked up some important emails
And spent the last half hour grovelling to a couple of very disgruntled writers. Bugger.


What have you cocked up recently?

Y/M not applicable.

Oh and I've tried to make a calculation timer in excel
which stays at 23:59:59 and then crashes the macro and corrupts the file.

I bought a shiny new car last weekend
and I've driven it once so far whereas mrs al has driven it every day this week. Now I realise that the reason I bought the car was so that she would save money on fuel for her commute and we would only have one lot of service and tax costs. But still, it's my car and the more she drives it, the less shiny it gets.

And she eats pretzels in it and crumbs get everywhere.

Run a search on your machine for files ending in .asd
They're Word automated recovery files, used for if Word crashes while you're writing a doc. They sometimes hang around, so you might get lucky and find an older version of your document.
