"It'll Never Happen to Me!"

Famous last words!

Shitbumfiddlearsepiddlewiddlestinktit!

Have you ever experienced that exquisite moment of pure "Ohhhh shhhh*****tttt"ness?

I have. Just these days!

I have been setting up the new PC and, in keeping with a promise, I have also been collecting the bits of my old PC for my cousin so that she can have a PC herself. Well... as one does... I moved all data from one disk to another, checked that the files were all there and clicked on delete.

"Are you sure that you want to finally delete 1234567 files?"

"Yes"... Click!

"Format disk"

Click!

I do not need to ask my intelligent readers what I did. I deleted the 'moved' files and formated the original storage disk... So now I have two lots of deleted files, don't I?

Anyway, right now I have an 'undelete' program running and with a bit of luck, I can recover at least those files that I altered since my last backup. That is the main thing.

It'll never happen to me... again... perhaps...

(fingers crossed)
