I got told a programme board had been brought forward so I've produced a Project Mandate, Brief, Approach, Plan, Next Stage Plan, Risk Log and so on in 2 days.
The project sponsor is off on a jolly, but wants to review them.
So I stayed late to fax them to the bod's hotel. Then Security threw me off site.
Then I got a text at 21:40 "Just back from dinner. Only got first 19 pages of the 38. Please send again."
On top of that I've been getting about 3 or 4 hours a night in this here Chavelodge.
Sorry, this isn't TPD, is it?
Something interesting...

And the internal surface area of your lungs is bigger than a tennis court.

Oops, sorry, I'm off topic.
Errm. Something interesting.
I can see bunny rabbits from my office window.

There as many stars in the universe as there are atoms in a grain of sand.
This is very very interesting for two reasons. How big the universe is, and how small an atom is.

Some of you guys don't half exaggerate. Why not stick to the facts, like Marina with her spiders? I read that somewhere too, although it was more like only 20,000.
