I had the police knock on my door this morning looking to arrest someone with nearly the same name as me and had to convince them that I was me and not him. Not my favourite kind of alarm clock but at least they did ring the bell.

Hooray, my Tardis passed its M.O.T. today.. No problems..
Damn. Managed to do just what I was trying not to. Locked myself out of work email by trying to reset my password at home. I know it never synchs properly remotely but hey, what can you do? Have to wait for them to unlock it.
Well here's some muzack while you wait

The thought was kind - I think but may I remind you that I'm in the public sector. We can't afford annoying muzack. Or for staff to hold. Even on internal calls.
Me too we don't get hold music, we get a voice shouting
"why are you waiting for the call to be answered you lazy bastard, work harder!"
Actually we don't get phones we just have to shout.

I had the same thing happen to me once. Unfortunatly I wasn't as lucky as you Rich.
WTF? IT have fixed the email. The same day. (Riley's paranoia goes into overdrive.)

You got wrongfully arrested? That's harsh. Apparently someone just called the house asking for Robert Kemp too. Now little bit more worried.
3 large policeman and a van.
Nice.
Woah. how long was it before it was cleared up?
Pulled into the 'yard' tonight and as I got out of my car heard the most tremendous squarking coming from the hedge. A closer inspection revealed a next full of baby birds. Was quite wonderful.

A tiny little clothes store full of birds?
See how I make fun of your miss-type.
