I was happy to oblige, naturally.

Next instalment: the day that my report on internal verification data achievement against college targets included 8 crowbarred-in Elvis Costello album titles. Anything to relieve the tedium of lying bashtards crowing about their success in public, and such lies being minuted.

We had to make our own entertainment in 2002.
