Is there a way of telling if there have been power cuts in the night or while out?

You talking about those long-distance paparazzi snaps again?

Well, she was a long way from being in the slightest way cool, in life.

She certainly wasn't hot either, so what the F was she?

There are occasions that I would quite like "normal staff" to be able to correct the data. Therefore a retailer could update their database so they can send my orders to the *correct* address.

[Mark]

It is you who are ignorant (and in more than one sense of the word too). I have seen many systems like this and, as a professional, have had to try and sort them out.

See above.

There's a database used by some car parts (and windscreen replacement) companies that comes up with the wrong vehicle for my personalised plate. It's a plate I've had 30 years, and has been on the same vehicle since 2005.

It'd be nice if one of the users could fix that.

If the normal staff can't fix it ask for tier two or three to do it. Ultimatly there is always a console and some sql commands on most databases.

[MM]

A novelty. First woman PM and all that.

The problem there is that they might happily update it to send your orders to my address...
