    Congratulations but please don't forget the Monday links (now presumably with a high street fashion slant) as they're the only thing keeping me sane on a Monday evening in a hotel

    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              So, this is your last weekend as a free man simian.

              Shirts pressed? Shoes polished? Best laptop fully charged and loaded with previous ClientCo code?

              Will the new outfit let you work the hours to which you have become accustomed, or will you be going through jetlag for the first week?

                They postponed the start to Wednesday - the chap who's supposed to get me up to speed on stuff won't be in till then

                Jetlag is a distinct possibility
