I am having last minute brainstorms with my teams and we have some crazy-mad ideas that maybe we can incorporate.

Let me know which of these are bowling your socks off. I will be at my workstation a few more hours yet and I am at your disposing – Pertti.

re:	Coke

I have processed a number of purchase orders on the Coca-Cola pitch, so does that qualify me to work at the weekend? I do pop in most Saturdays and/or Sundays but tomorrow I am due to take part in a sponsored Hymn-a-thon for the St. Mary’s of Balham Steeple Fund. I would hate to let Father Clive down.

Use your own judgement.

Tell him no more than he needs to know. Given that he will not be attending the pitch, that means nothing.

When are you going to take me away from all this?

Not tonight. Me and Lily the Pink are trying to do Coke posters. We’re stuffed. I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere till Monday PM.

re:	Simon’s return

As you know, Simon is back on Monday. You know he dislikes people drifting in so can we all make an extra special effort to arrive on time. Also could whoever put the life-size cut-out of Charlotte Church with the obscene speech bubble by the coffee machine please remove it. Just one other thing – please observe Simon’s ban on smoking in the corridor. I notice that this has been ignored over the last few days.

Since Simon will be busy sorting out Coke on Monday I imagine he will want to delay the Monday morning progress meeting. I have pencilled it in for 8:45 on Tuesday. Please make sure that it is in your diaries.

Thx – Susi

re:	Harriet

I have been attempting to raise her all day so that she can bring me up to speed on Coke. I wish only to help. Perhaps my experience could afford some insights that may make the difference between defeat and victory. Would you have a quiet word and ask her to get in touch? You know that I hate to tattle, but I suspect she is avoiding me deliberately.

You may be thousands of miles and four time zones away, but even from there your powers of perception are staggering.

re:	home news

Darling, I have finally got everything just how you like it. I can’t wait for life to return to normal. I have briefed the department on your expectations. Pinki has let standards slide this week, so they needed to be reminded. I hope everything is well with you. I’m a little worried that I haven’t heard from you all day. You’re probably just unwinding after a hard shoot – I’m being silly aren’t I? You relax and enjoy yourself. You deserve it . . . Sx
