Tales of the Unexpected

Last night I was watching a pretty good episode of Tales of the Unexpected called "Clerical Error". The story revolved around two elderly brothers who run an antique book store, however on the side they scour the newspaper obituaries to find wealthy, respectable men who have recently died and send their greiving relatives large "outstanding bills" for very old but very dirty books, which the relatives pay to save embarrasement. However their latest victim manages to turn the tables on them.

It was another dull day at work. Another one of the key systems unexpectedly crashed for about three hours today, which threw everything into chaos. I telephoned the IT department after about two hours and they said they had no idea what was wrong or when it would be fixed. They did work it out eventually though.

I returned home to a blown fuse and a burnt out lightbulb in my living room. Luckily I managed to get them both fixed up.
