Been there, done that. Back in the MS-DOS days, Lotus created an office suite called Symphony[^]. One of our customers at the time wanted us to aggregate information from their existing data acquisition system into a single spreadsheet. They had dozens of separate sheets, none of which updated consistently. First we reworked the original sheets to improve their consistency. Next we created an overlay system using macros that loaded an unloaded the individual sheets as needed, and added a menu system on top of that to manage the whole mess.
Probably the worst obscenity I've ever built in my career.

I once spent a few months building up a financial model for a car importer in Oz, excel dragging in data from various systems (mini, PC and banking services). After 3 months I apologised as I could not get it closer than $1m to the target - manager was delighted no one else had got closer than $10m. Excel took 9 hours to recalc the sheets.

BEZOAR
It's Calculus, furball!
A Calculus is a mineral Bezoar[^], a Furball is a organic Bezoar[^] called a Trichobezoar.
And I'm up tomorrow!

All jabbed up ?

Yep! Pfizer this time, to go with the AstraZeneca last time.
Hopefully no nasties from this one, but I've planned a "slob day" for tomorrow just in case.

I've had Pfizer three times with no side effects at all - and I had my first ever flu jab at the same time as the booster - we're becoming a nation of narcos

According to the nurse today, the side effects generally happen in the "super fit", so we know which side of that equation you fall!
I just looked down at myself when she said that and raised an eyebrow Spock stylee.

Same mix as me, but I was somewhat dodgy for a couple of days after the booster. And definitely not super fit ...
Good luck!

It's Calculus, furball! (6)
Sorry it's early, but I'm booked for a booster jab and it's an 80 mile round trip ... this is not a part of the clue or related in any way to the solution.

If an octopus lose it's foot, is it still called Octopus?

Humans are bipeds. If a human loses a foot, does he/she stop being a biped?

If the foot is simply injured but becomes septic, s/he'd be a septopus. Until it had to be amputated, when it would become just a septo.

What if it lost two legs, would it be a sexopus or a hexopus?
|
|

|

As much as it could become a Centipede.

Actually, they regrow. So yes, it's still an octopus.
