   Amanda now hot-desks so a normally reliable source has dried up.

   Yes, sticky tape will do that in hot environments.

   I like the idea of giving names to tape dispensers:

   "Oh no, Lisa McBain's run out!"

   "Have you got Lisa McBain somewhere?"
   "I think so, have a rummage in my drawers."

   (Sorry...)

   I hereby name my hole-making thingy "John Prescott".

   "Has anyone seen John Prescott? I need something punched."

   re BORGS

   Flicking through the archive earlier I noticed that if you clicked on 27th you went through to 1Extra! Tony the Blog Wizard says it's been fixed but this was his explanation:

   "I think this may be something to do with the Borg 2 migration."

   Yikes. The Borgs are on the move.

   Better go. Supposed to be working on The World at One

   As some of you will know, I have a duvet called Fred. I'm off to name a few other things.

   I see you're at it now Eddie.

   Using phrases like "hot-desks". Its probably management speak you've picked up from somewhere.

   I was in a meeting this morning when this bloke said. "We've got to take a helicopter view". This was accompanied by him making a little whirly motion above his head with his finger.

   What an annoying little herbert - he was.

    Perry [24]. That's an extreme leap of the imagination that took me (a pseudo~monk) a very long time to work out.

    Now I'll have to do twice as much penance this weekend, because of the newly lustful thoughts, and go without cheese. Thankyou very much Perry.

    "Extreme leap of the imagination"?

    Imagination is like salmon - if it doesn't leap it dies.

    Is it fishy becasue it's Friday or is that just a coincidence?

    That may help you to guess Andyfish?

    Still, no ing, no eye deer would be better English (see Val). But then it wouldn't be funny.

    You can let go now, it hurts.

    Andy,

    Your 38 says almost exactly what my non-appearing post did, including the bit about it not really working and what one would really need to say. Surely that's favouritism from the blog god?

    And I asked "If I bite you will it taste fishy?" but I know the answer to that now...

    Apologies for biting so hard...

40. At 09:50 PM on 29 Sep 2006, wrote:

    Favouritism from the blog god, definately.

    The idea is to say nice things about Them-wots-in-charge and good things happen.

    I wasn't that fishy was I? And this probably better not carry on, you have work to do, and I have to watch QI and go abed.

    My tape dispenser is called Rexel - that's not the least bit funny. I can't believe I actually looked for it's name.

    I haven't named my duvet yet, still working on it...(Naming the duvet, not actually working on it (ahem)).

    Off to the Cotswolds tomorrow for a tramp in the rain - no, a walk, not a scruffy homeless person.

    Happy weekend, Bloggers!

    Non, je ne comprends pas. Deer with no eyes in respect of the punchline. I'm sure it must be smutty otherwise you'd probably have elaborated, but, no, you got me. Clue? (Like maybe the name of the apparently more appropriate blog?)

    btw, the repeat of You & Yours is probably worse.

    A repeat of You and Yours (or Euan Yours as someone recently so wittilly suggested)? That contravenes the Geneva Convention.

    Sorry if I caused confusion yesterday eve, Appy. As usual the glass of fermented fruit juice may have been a contributing factor. What happened was that I didn't make it clear that it was the punchline to the "dear with no eyes and no genitals" joke that we all knew. Ooops!

    Here's an interesting thought about names:

    We've heard much (perhaps too much) over the years about the Blair-Brown partnership.

    With Tony's impending elevation to something better, and the speculation that Gordon will be the new PM and Ed (no relation) his trusty sidekick as Chancellor, how will PM be able to report, before the watershed, on the new Brown-Balls partnership?

    Mind you, the red-tops will have a whale of a time!
