The Office

Is there any chance that someone (anyone?) who taped the Christmas
episodes of The Office would be willing to post a copy across the
Atlantic(BFPO)?
Obviously appropriate compensation will be proffered.

Actually, yes I did. I should be able to knock up a second copy, if
you want, this w/e. It was enjoyable, but as Gervais said himself, you
can't keep a thing like that good for long. The first half was okay,
but I enjoyed the second half better.

When you say the Atlantic, whereabouts?

 

Ah, EST in your header. Canada?

 

I actually switched off the first half.

 

That would be excellent. I'll try Doc Gonzo's suggestion tonight
before I take you up on that. My news server only holds binaries for
48 hours so I might have missed the boat.

Ottawa and just wondering how long this unseasonably warm weather is
going to last. This time last year it was -20C and the bike had been
in hibernation for a month.

It's been raining so much I'm getting homesick! Though I do seem to be
the only idiot who rides in the rain.

cheers,

No worries. Follow up to the email addy if you need me to sort it.

 

I'm still not sure about the whole thing. It doesn't make me laugh, but
it does now make me half-grin about twice an episode, which is a lot
more than it did the first time round.

 

[Christmas episodes of The Office]

<ace mode>

I've never watched it.

I found it excruciating. In the same way I found "Some Mothers Do 'Ave
'Em" excruciating [1].

All the fuss overshadowed that years real sitcom gem, "Phoenix Nights".
Which was a shame.


[1] Although Michael Crawford's rolling skating does take some beating.

 

Phew, not alone.

 

In uk.rec.motorcycles, Cab said:

It never was good IMO. Bloody awful it was, about as funny as a puncture
in the rain.

 

I hadn't used Bittorrent, but it's now whizzing down nicely, so thanks
for that and thanks to Cab for his kind offer to copy it.

You've missed fuckall.

1. Should that be Square Ace mode, perhaps?
