Yoo hoo

Gosh - is that the time (of year)?

Bloggering has been shelved for a while, since HTS got involved in a new Jobcentre scheme, the Jobsearch Support Service for Newly Unemployed Professionals, a scheme as admirable as it is time-devouring.  But to avoid disappointing the droves of people who accidentally end up here by clicking the wrong icon on our website, and are wondering, perhaps angrily, why this blog is lying fallow, I thought I'd take a few minutes to post a blurry picture of a rubber hand.

There's more where that came from!

Regular service, which was never particularly regular in the first place, will resume anon.

Have a fruitful weekend, folks.

Imagine - if you can!! - a future in which ordinary people can explore the whole universe without getting up from their chairs. 

Imagine a world in which humans like you can visit shops, banks, libraries and religious cults without having to put down their scotch eggs or pull on their socks.  A world in which you can sign up with a boutique recruitment agency while sitting in your underpants, eating crisps surrounded by doner kebab trays and copies of Razzle.

Welcome to the year 3000 AD?  No - WELCOME TO NOW.

Here at HTS, we have always been at the vanguard of technology.  And so we weren't slow to pick up on a new trend that some people are calling The Internet.  Nor did it escape us that the technology exists - not just in the minds of science fiction writers but in REALITY - to create mini worlds inside your computers - worlds that other people who own computers can somehow access via a glorified television with a sort of typewriter attached and a small ergonomic device that looks exactly like a hoof on a string, and is therefore referred to as a "mouse". 

For reasons too technical for you to understand, we've nicknamed these micro-worlds "web-sites".

And here's the kicker.  We've only gone and got ourselves one.

And we're relocating our offices - to a COLONY ON JUPITER!!!!

No, but seriously.  It's a big development, you'll agree - though it's not the first time HTS have dabbled in "websitery" before.  It will astonish you to learn that we've had something like a "web-site" for some time.  It has served us pretty well since the late 19^th century, when we first etched the coding directly onto piano scrolls; but it had not been substantially updated since 1974, and even then we just did a little work on it with an etch-a-sketch. 

But now that our technological resources are literally galloping into space, we thought we'd get ahead of the game and award ourselves the gift of what we like to call 'web presents' (still working on that term).  So this time, we've got ourselves the real deal.

Oh - and an OFFICE ON THE MOON!!! 

Eat our space dust, rivals!

Here's our new HTS website, earthlings and employment-fans.
