My companions on the trip in this morning were three unshaven, unkempt, slightly fragrant Oxford University students. All male (just to be 100% clear about the unshaven comment). Farting and belching was had. Completely unattractive.<\/em><\/p>\n

In the office this morning, to celebrate Comic Relief day, a number of my colleagues are wearing jeans and t-shirts, with two exceptions:<\/p>\n

Exception 1: a guy who came in all the way from home in drag, complete with a long, black-haired wig. And fully made up. Gloss lipstick, if you’re interested. If there’s an office outing to the pub this evening he might get lucky! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Exception 2: those poor unfortunates (me!) who have meetings with ‘external’ people. That includes me. Boo! \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

In honour of the day one of the meeting rooms is temporarily serving duty as a cake room. I may have had some. The Lemon Drizzle Cake was delicious! And I only ate it – and the others – as a device to give money to a registered charity. Honest!<\/p>\n

But it is Comic Relief day so please give generously (if you’re so inclined). And I hope your generosity is as favourably rewarded as mine.<\/p>\n
