Tiggy concluded that returning to full duties immediately following her birthday weekend was perhaps overly ambitious…she has therefore spent the day recovering and has skipped her evening patrol. The Office can, however, report that all appears broadly under control.
Mrs Emmeline Peckhurst has spent much of the day catching up on Staff Census administration following her weekend postal ballot deliveries.

Harley’s proposal to cease counting the 143-box consignment of wee tap shoes and simply distribute them until there aren’t any left has now been referred to the Synchronised Tap & Parasol Dance Troupe judging panel. The panel has requested time to consider its position.
Field Operative Phileas Moss has begun preliminary discussions with Senior Risk Assessment Officer Anita Butler (Ant No. 14,351) regarding the Health & Safety implications of adapting Mr Thistlethwaite’s flight-harness technology for gastropod use.

Socks has continued her aptitude assessments, today completing Training Exercise 4.3 – Module 2b: Plausible Deniability of Responsibility. Despite being discovered sitting immediately beside a substantially unravelled ball of wool, Socks maintained an entirely convincing appearance of innocence and was awarded a double distinction. Well done, Socks!
Tiggy assures the Office that a full account of her birthday weekend will be provided at some point, but makes no promises as to when.
The Office wishes all a restful evening (Tiggy is certainly having that).
