just to update you, yet another baby has been brought in, with its two older siblings. the mum sits near me in the office and ive managed a nervous smile thus far. the last time she brought the baby in i had to coo over it nervously (i never know what to say to babies or children i dont know). luckily theres a gaggle of women around her now, so i may yet escape the awkward trauma.

PS. this may sound ridiculously stingy, but another gripe about my office's baby making machine is that envelopes are constantly passed around for folk going off to have a baby. folk i dont even know, yet feel obliged to reward in some way. as if all the charities, sponsored football teams, weddings, anniversaires, reitirements, birthdays (i could probably go on and on and on) weren't enough...
Im tempted to pass around an envelope with "Phil's Mobile Phone Bill fund" to try and claw back some of my goodwill, its not like everyone hasn't been pissing themselves at my stupidity since word got out about the colossal charge.

You should say "cheers!" and help yourself to the cash.
