I was pitching something (well pimping myself out) to some bigwigs at a new infrastructure project a couple of years back. Part of my pitch was a website that had CVs on it. I had asked the guy back at the office to enter the CV of our first applicant on the site as a demonstration. I hadn?t checked it, just linked to it directly from my presentation.


So there I am in the glass walled meeting room, all wood-effect tables and those vertical blinds, you know the sort. I?m strutting my stuff, interfacing, flashing a smile, showing a bit of leg and powerpointing like a good?un. I clicked through to the CV website and after a few more minutes proactive corporate synergy I looked over my shoulder to see that the words MR P MYCOCK were emblazoned across the screen behind me.


I probably could have got away with it too if I hadn?t started to giggle like a schoolgirl.

    • Thanks for the suggestions! If the Angel Oak is the pub on the edge of the Rye, it's probably not too far, but there might be more central (to East Dulwich) pubs to try first. No way will Nyge and I  ever  go to the Cherry Tree again, sorry. We had the most appalling Christmas Day meal there,   which cost us nearly two hundred pounds (for two people) without drinks. It was the only place within walking distance  locally which had availability that day, apart from the Plough (which ironically we wanted to avoid after previous bad experiences with the food  there). We did complain at the time, and were given a free bottle of wine (we don't often drink wine and were having beer with the meal) but we did not want to make a huge fuss and spoil other people's day as well.  Our detailed complaints in an email  were never properly addressed, and my last email to the manager was never answered.
    • Looking for an iPod - preferably a classic - with at least 60gb storage.  Anyone have one hiding in a drawer? Thanks. 
    • Sorry to have missed this one but hope to make the next.  Re suggestions, is the Angel Oak too far?  Or the Cherry tree
    • Not strictly a new place but new to me: stumbled across a fabulous cocktail bar at 210 Rye Lane - we loved the gorgeous, eclectic interior, they make any cocktail you can imagine and will be doing small plates. Think it's called XOTO? opposite the Tesco express at that end of Rye Lane.
