At Midnight We Will Turn Into A Pumpkin

[AB Editor]

Afternoon all,

We need to do some back-office shuffling on the sever at AB Towers, and we've decided to do it tonight, upon the witching hour...

... for the three hours following.

I don't really know what the techies are doing, but they'll probably be arranging things neatly and putting labels on things so we can find them quicker in the future.

Anyway, as usual we'll be setting up some silliness on the Facebook page for you to chat about (should you wish to chat with the high calibre patrons of AB while the site is down).

Hopefully we'll see the night-owls there :)

All the best,

Ed

You're all off for a group massage at that dodgy looking parlour down Union St......is what you are really saying, isn't it?

[mccfluff]

back office shuffling???

[ummmm]

How will I cope????

[boxtops]

High Calibre? FB? That's told us, then :-)

[shoota]

Just DON'T look up 'shuffling' in the Urban Dictionary - don't......

[boxtops]

shoota, especially "shuffling on the sever (sic)" - I wondered if Ed had missed off the N, they're going shuffling on the Severn.....

[mccfluff]

shoota .........hence my giggling

[boxtops]

Let's all have a go

No problem. When it's midnight your time, it's only seven pm here; therefore, I can still use the site for another five hours.

AB is closing at midnight
The service is being withdrawn
And if you really hate Facebook
You'll be left feeling sad and forlorn.

[mccfluff]

or you'll be asleep or doing something else...

[EcclesCake]

LOL @Stewey.

[cupid04]

Can't you make it 3-6 instead?

[pixie373]

Yes, 3-6 suits me...
so, we won't be able to find anything tomorrow? Is that what you're trying to tell us? :-)

[ChillDoubt]

LOL @ boxy's first post!

[pixie373]

Normally, i don't do FB. Last time AB went off, i clicked the link and made an account. It said "you don't have any friends". So i logged out.

"AB is closing at midnight

Yes.

Or, use AB by post, send us a postcard to:

The AnswerBank
Behind the leaky waterpipe,
In the dark dark wood
London
UK

And we'll send you a copy of the latest posts pod.

Then you can send us a letter back telling us which question you'd like to click on, or whether you'd like to refresh the page.

Please include a return address.

[AB Editor]

3am to 6am you mean?

No, we can't do it at that time.

[pixie373]

I might use that method anyway, ed. certainly be quicker than my phone.

[boxtops]

Ed, I foresee a demand for cocoa tins, and stretched string....

(does anyone still do that, btw?)
