I could never work in a place so joyless!

It is not entirely joyless – they have not yet quite succeeded in breaking our spirit. It is the people who make a place, and the people for the most part are satisfyingly odd. A colleague was telling me the other day that he had come into work early one morning to find our extremely dignified Assistant Director stood on a chair in the middle of the open plan office. It transpired that he was trying to see if he could get from one side of the building to the other without touching the floor…

Ace.

Awww. Bless him.

I used to do that as a child.

That's awesome.

We used to see if we could get around our 6th form common room without touching the floor.

We did that, except not trying to touch the ceiling (because my school was so crap the ceiling was on the floor).

We do that! We also shout "CHANGE PLACES!" in the middle of the 6th form block. Our head of hear has caught us at things like that so many times, and just shakes his head and laughs.

All men could be daddies and not even know themselves.

Men are so weird.

That just reminds me of Green Wing.
"Do you think you've got any children you don't know about?"
"Martin, I think I'd now."
*Silence*
"Oh! *laughs* Mothers' instinct!"

Roo is sad cause she has had to miss out on the flaming tar barrels cause she has a cold.
