Blimey? Must be some lingo local to Port Moresby.
I didn't hear that much when I was out and about with my signboard.
I have it on good authority that Blimey is an exclusively British slang and that the Australian equivalent is Crikey, although the Tasmanian I heard that from is known for pulling my leg. There's a lot of Aussies in Port Moresby.
Now Pohmmie can refer to either Aussies (Prisoners Of Her Majesty) or Brits (turnabout is fair play) depending on who you talk to.
My thought question: Have you ever been told that your query runs too fast?
My advice:
INDEXing a poor-performing query is like putting sugar on cat food. Yeah, it probably tastes better but are you sure you want to eat it?
The path of least resistance can be a slippery slope. Take care that fixing your fixes of fixes doesn't snowball and end up costing you more than fixing the root cause would have in the first place.
