Morning! The car argument last night was fun so I hear. Late night calls between Robin and the team trying to find Richard's racing car preferences!

Today:

I have a Netgear WNR854T Rangemax Wireless router for cable connections on my desk.

Yes, this is another ex sample, but it has all the bits still inside :)

Question: How many takes did we do of me on the Segway before I got it just right?

Answers in by 3pm!

Five.

Seeing as it hasn't been taken already and I wouldn't expect that you'd need to retake that much.

Mr. Lime
11-08-10, 11:42
8 lol

Marv

Question: How many takes did we do of me on the Segway before I got it just right?
Answer: "1", i think you had experience many times before on holiday or even at a team building exercise with your employees


Edit: Thought you guys already use Segway's to Zoom round your large warehouse!

I chose 5 not because of him losing balance on the Segway, but because of him mincing his words and having to re-take until he got his opening line right.
