'That brings back a Red Dwarf moment where Lister said 'Raise the sheilds and arm the photon torpedoes'. Kryton said 'Excellent plan sir. Only we don't have any shields and we don't have any photon torpedoes'<BR/><BR/>It made everyone laugh and my boss actually said to me later that he liked the way I handled the meetings and everyone seemed to be more at ease. I did think the guy who made the stupid suggestion wasn't too happy though but he was new and would get over it. I had a chat to himlater and he was OK and he agreed it was a stupid suggestion.<BR/><BR/>So Red Dwarf experience fits in many different places in life.<BR/><BR/>As does Yes,Minister, Yes, Prime Minister and many others.<BR/><BR/>:)Baghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09972525000973914288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8932024.post-16071741088080608352007-07-22T21:34:00.000+00:002007-07-22T21:34:00.000+00:00More spam links masquerading as comment...More spam links masquerading as comment...Shadeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07777836927500400430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8932024.post-39035989242390395322007-07-21T16:11:00.000+00:002007-07-21T16:11:00.000+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8932024.post-33996394322278601862007-07-21T16:09:00.000+00:002007-07-21T16:09:00.000+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8932024.post-52342225419591263442007-07-20T10:30:00.000+00:002007-07-20T10:30:00.000+00:00I've made gazpacho soup and thought it had to be s...I've made gazpacho soup and thought it had to be served cold.

It has also given me a few catchphrases as well over the years, but I can't think of any at the moment as they have to pop into my head to suit the situation.<BR/><BR/>Red alert is a good one- "Are you sure sir? I'd have to change the bulb" (Kryten) and "Don't you mean brown alert?"
