As sure as eggs...
Less than two hours to go before the council's accounts are closed and the e-procurement system's been down since lunchtime. My, how Maisie laughed.
"I've all these orders to process and I can't do a thing!"
Mind you, we have have all the rest of the year in which to get spent up.
Fate relents and it's back up and running. It's a horrible system and not much fun to have to use at the best of times. These aren't the best of times. Every so often I hear Maisie mutter:
"I wish this bloody system would crash again."

An "e-procurement system" just sounds like a disaster waiting to happen - can you go on it and buy anything, like eBay?
It's a local government e-procurement system. You have to go on it and then find out you're not allowed to buy anything.
Oh, how I wish that was a joke.
And nobody wants to hear that the system is down.
Moo!
