True story ...

I arrive at an exhibition hall where we are handling registration for a
client who is an exhibitor. In addition to the registration software, we're
supplying and setting up the hardware. I turn up with six PCs, six monitors,
and six printers.

"Right", says I, "where are the power points?"

"Over there", says the client, and points to one, count it, one single
solitary power point, over the far side of the exhibition hall, well beyond
the reach of any of my cables.

How do I get a power point, indeed! :-(

Just one of many stories about that day, TC. Everything that could go wrong
went wrong that day. It started with the fact that Bruce Springsteen was
playing a gig right next door to the exhibition hall, which brought traffic
throughout the city to a stand-still. Not that I would have complained if
only I'd been at the gig instead of at the darn exhibition! :-( And it ended
with a melting ice sculpture!

It's funny looking back on it now, though it wasn't very funny at the time.
No, I tell a lie, the melting ice sculpture was funny even then! :)
