I have done the only sensible thing a man can do on return from leave, and that is apply to take more leave.
Of course, that is the four days I need to prepare for, help run and recover from the final NWO in three weeks time.
In the meantime, it has occurred to me that taking time off in this place is merely an excuse for colleagues to fit you out with a lead waistcoat, fill the pockets with as many rocks as they can find and then invite you to swim across shark-infested waters whilst wearing it.
And why do people want inconsequential and hard to obtain information going back to 1980, all of a sudden?
