Someone's shat on the furcation game? Do we want it reinstated? I guess that's aimed at Martha Farquar really.

The subject of the aiming being the question about reinstatement, not the shitting. Just to be clear.

[pen] I think the chickens would definitely look better in a hutch than in posh underwear.

[penelope] I went all fickle, ran off with a drummer in a folk-rock band and as I recall, the posh underwear was quite unnecessary. hehehehe.

There must be some joke about both drummers and chickens having drumsticks . . . .

My colleague has just accepted another job - we've been running a PR programme together for the past five and a half years and now... eeeeek!!! *sees her holidays disappearing into the mist as the workload piles up while someone else is appointed*

[rab] Careful you don't stain your white T-shirt.
[penelope] That's a bit of a bummer. So - this PR malarkey? Could any one do it?

[Chalky] Yup. Any dipstick can do it. As long as you're smarter than the average, have newspaper experience, can tell the difference between a good story and a bad one and be able to tell the client exactly what you think and hold your temper when they disregard everything you say, be able to turn a phrase or two and don't mind having red pen through your work every now and again.
