    Ah bugger. With such a big forum, I'm sure it's so cool to meet TMFers in person.

    Is it safely stored away at least? What did the new employers say about storing/displaying it at your work?

    All they can tell me is that it was sent to the wrong depot. Thing is, it was accompanied by a box with the rest of the order in it which arrived here this morning

    linking my microshaft account with everything. Turns out my backup e-mail (which i now need to access to confirm my identity to the screwing b****** is no longer in use so i've had it. I changed the security but it will take a while for them to review it and sort it so i get nagging messages every 5 mins about it

    Haha, it isn't sending that email code to me, so I have no way to confirm my account either.

    I can store it somewhere, but it'd be miles away.

    We'll sort something even if you have to put it all on hold for a bit.
