LOVE

Simon, I am delighted that you have decided to accompany us to Mauritius on our little jaunt. Naturally, I am thankful that I will have some erudite company to help while away the tropical sunsets. I am more impressed, however, that you are prepared to pass on your
Solomonian wisdom to our young creatives. I hope for their sakes that they will see the sacrifice you are making.

Incidentally, I am pleased that you have moved us to le Touessrok. Try hard as she does, I must admit to doubts about Melinda’s abilities, particularly given the fleapit she had booked us into. And do not worry about the additional expense. I did not become Head of Client Services by not knowing how to “lose” unwanted costs in the hurly-burly of billing.

Delighted as I am that Simon will be adding his steady hand to the tiller on our LOVE shoot, I must say that I am a little surprised that you have decided to let him accompany us with the Coca-Cola about to go “warp factor.” I would never doubt your reasons, David, and clearly you are confident enough in the direction the pitch is taking to feel that the agency does not need his creative scholarship.

News to me. For once you’ve told me something I don’t already know. Bear one thing in mind. If I ultimately choose to let Simon go on your junket, it can only be that I deem his presence at the Coke pitch as inessential as that of the Head of Client Services.

So when were you planning to tell me that you’re swanning off to the Indian Ocean? Perhaps you were going to send me a fax from your
hotel. But even
you
couldn’t be fuckwitted enough to think that the other side of the world would be out of harm’s way when I found out. The only reason I’m not tearing you limb from limb is that you have given me some very good work today. An explanation wouldn’t go amiss.

Anyone still here got a picture of Lisa from TLC? I need it desperately for a Mako ad. I think there was one in last month’s
Maxim
, but the pages of the only copy on my floor are stuck together. Ta.

I’m here! Sorry, but I’ve never heard of TLC. I do have an excellent shot of Olivia Newton-John (from her creative peak in
Xanadu
!) if you can live with the drawing-pin marks. – Nige
