With my antelope cheek and my raven's eye

Day spent on FoI work. I scream along AM. Despair by lunchtime, call Jim. Sort myself out, dig in for the afternoon. Bring more home with me and decide I've had enough during the day. Tempted to reach for the bottle of Bush. Beryl calls with a query, get her to send it to Tracy, yell out a route to an answer and Tracy fills in the gaps. I'm impressed given the instructions were telegraphic to say the least.

PM Marie calls in search of the circular that ushered in the Safe Haven Policy. I'd offer her a link to George but reckon it'd be a waste of breath. Thakfully Tobias' book on 'Information Governance Toolkit' comes to the rescue. Simple lateral search involving an index and references. Marie and I mutter dark things about youngsters and not looking in hard copy. I'm feeling like an old lag and I've hardly got any time in (14 years last count). The enquiries are a bit of light relief. 'Nother thing sorted for the M inquiry.

Home, feed the family and take Monst to work. Put Cal to bed and sit in front of 'Life on Mars'. Decide I've had enough of reading other peoples e-mails right now.

Ken has a pointer to whichbook.net. I play with it and it recommends me at least one book which I know and love. Handy little tool and I love the link to local public libraries. Pity I don't use the things. Top stuff.

Scream!
