Colour me utterly unsurprised

So, the government's computer system that tracks the census is buggered up. I'm shocked, I tell you, completely stunned. How do I know this amazing fact? Someone just knocked on my door and asked me why I hadn't completed my census. I pointed out that I had. I showed proof. I did it 10 days in advance of the actual date. You know my mistake? Doing it online and assuming when the system said my submission had been accepted and registered that it actually had been.

Luckily, I'm a cynic of the highest order and knew this was coming. I have a lovely screenshot to demonstrate the acceptance screen and submission code. Sucks to be you, poor census-chasing people - you're going to get shouted at today. But at least it's sunny.

fail, census
