(07:41:31) is writing interview questions.. I have a feeling I'll be asking 'em, so I'd better make them ones I can answer myself!
(09:56:26) is back from the shortest fire drill ever. Why do people laugh at me when I put a day-glo vest on? Am I a comedy fire warden?
(10:27:18) loves the way facilities management works here; second time round the loop to get a laser toner cartridge recycled. Bureaucracy 1 : james: 0
(10:38:09) loves the way I can call up Lyreco and ask for free stuff, but they'll not send it unless I order it through the 'procurement' 'system'. 2:0
(11:01:17) can't remember if my boss told me he was going to be away this week. This may mean I'm in charge. Uhoh. POWER RUSH!
(12:59:15) is awaiting the return of my colleague (ooh.. this week he's an UNDERLING! POWER!) with a sachet of mustard. If he fails me, he will die.
(13:50:31) Mustard update: FAIL. It'll have to be McDonalds barbeque dip.
(14:16:25) is on a conference call..waiting for the meeting to start, since they've had to move rooms. Kinda disembodied & odd. Bring on Google Lively!
(14:39:01) has had the conference call interrupted by a fire alarm. Now is a good opportunity to make some tea...
(16:38:09) is all done on the phone and is wrestling with virtual PCs and translating German manuals. This is, indeed, the life.
(16:52:07) is going to dispatch himself home through the medium of the Internal Post.
(17:22:09) To write comedy, one needs a good memory. And funnyness. And an armoury of amusing words. That may not be all; it's what I just thought of.
(17:31:27) is Listening Again to a David Quantick programme about the mix tape. My children will look back & say 'you did ~what~ with C90 cassettes?'
(17:37:49) still makes CD compilations, mind. They take me days. In case you're interested: Radio 4, 11.30 today. End of side A.(gap) (leader) (click)
