...a kitchen!

Always good.

Oh yes, we love it! Although the kettle is tiny, and we all seem to have enormous mugs...

That's not so good! Means you have to spend longer making the and . But there's a bright side to that too - you get longer screen breaks

It's ok until someone decides to make a round - then we don't see them for a couple of hours.

Not Tower 42, then?

But wasn't there a pub in Bush House?

No, not Tower 42.

And yes, we are further away from the bar.

Shocking.


I thought and fueled the editorial machine...

I am deeply appalled at the fact you can't even be bothered to wash up your own mugs, alcohol or nay.

B

Appalled/jealous?

Washing up a mug does not constitute sufficient hard work to warrant jealousy.

Our cleaners never did our washing up, and we were _students_.

B

What are you so busy doing that you can't wash up your mugs? Or is it just that they've been sat there so long that the has congealed into nasty sludge?

I did say we were students.

Washing up was very optional.

B

Not me, although obviously you haven't read my Personal Space or you'd know about Abi...

I don't actually like my mug washed up, as they put it in the kitchen cupboard, and as it's a (kind of) collectors item I don't want to lose it. I now stick a post it note on it that says 'PLEASE LEAVE'.

They probably think you're trying to grow things in it.

I once filled a pint glass with mould

B

On purpose?

After I discovered the first half-inch, yes.

B

Oh no, there's no new life-forms in this office. In fact I'd be surprised if there was any life at all.

My mug is normally empty, just not washed, and I don't want someone else's hands on my lovely Vince Ray mug!

When I was in halls last year, me and my flatmate Mike both accidentally left half a cup of tea on the kitchen table when we broke up for christmas (around 20 dec), and it was quite disgusting when we got back (about 10 jan)
