Sadly as people can probably guess I wasn't actually in the office at the same time.

When I used to work for Balfour Beatty, the marketing manager got in Jenny Powell to do some corporate video promotion for us. She needed somewhere to get changed for the shoot, my door was opposite the marketing manager's and being in charge of the network the only door that was permanetly locked (and didn't have a window in it). So I had to vacate, and upon leaving she remarked 'I hope you don't mind me being naked in your office, don't worry I didn't leave any knickers in there.'

The corridor outside became very busy that day. If only I'd hooked my webcam up.

What a missed opportunity! I've never liked her much personally, but you missed out there!

She did leave him a little pressie in his draw.

Poor love didn't have the time to get to the toilet.

Chunky stylings. Clarkson would loathe it. Kinda funky though.

by Clarkson, I assume, you mean Top Gear.

Never watched it. I figure it's the same as asking music guru to recommend nice background music for a romantic evening with a girl in front of fireplace, and he'd make you choose King Crimson or Cannibal Corpse, as these are "the best bands for every occasion".
The so-called auto experts around these parts love only BMW's or Audi's (or Mercedes, at best). The rest are garbage to them. So, why bother.

btw, how's going with you-know-what?

Yes, I do, and I have no idea what you're on about with the music shizzle. But you really should try it. It's nothing like what I perceive you to be expecting of it!
