Good news.
We're going to have to get him a decent personal space now 
Two lines is just not nearly enough for a full editor.

Narapoia Posted Aug 9, 2004
Reprobates and malcontents, eh?
Pah!
But well done, lad, anyway - just let us know what you're actually going to do with that key. We all know the Beeb is famously too tight-fisted to actually put anything in the tin...

Clearly the 'stickiness' of h2g2 works on staff too!
Welcome to the inner sanctum of the asylum, Paully!

"What a wonderful Post headline: 'Master B wants Ashley'."

Never mind that... does Ashley know?

Well done Paully, glad to have you with us for the time being (I won't say for good as I know you'll leave eventually, everyone does, due to normal mortality if nothing else, that's a very depressing thing to think about on a Tuesday morning isn't it, but it's raining and I feel like that anyway. Ho hum. Where was I? Oh yes).
