I don't know about the UK, but the rule in the USA is that if the contract 
is ambiguous, it gets read in a way that goes against the person who wrote 
the contract or brought the lawsuit. So, no.

Indeed, I've seen law cases where an extra comment separated two things the 
author wanted bound together and cost millions of dollars.

  You lost most of your nerd points because of that. I suppose that makes
me the nerdiest person in this news server now.

The only reason he lost nerd points was because he put in a subject line of

    Priorities

instead of a subject line of

    Achievement unlocked!

As an aside,  you *did* call the young lady since then, right? Suggest 
dinner somewhere nice, or a show, or something like that? :-) The 
stereotypes about such things are fairly true, ya know.
