Following Shiny Geeket’s recommendation to spice up my office working hours by kidnapping something from a fellow worker’s desk and sending a ransom note, I nicked my friend Jonathan’s supaclip (of which I am in any event inordinately covetous) and sent a ransom note (made from cut out single letters, taped onto a sheet of paper) demanding that a packet of jaffa cakes (a UK sponge and orange based product – think orange Twinkie) be left on the water cooler by 3 p.m. if he ever wanted to see the supaclip again …

Much hilarity ensued, including this very funny email from him:

Details of urgent Thames Valley Police press conference just in: -

"A highly respected and influential Corporate lawyer has found himself the innocent victim of a biscuit-based terror campaign. Jonathan *** today received an "anonymous" letter threatening him with the permanent abduction of his 7 month old supa-clip. Police are now trying to trace the letter and have a number of leads. Mr Williamson has been on the receiving end of numerous biscuit related taunts recently from two work acquaintances. The first suspect has been named as Philippa ***. She is aged 38 and hails from the "wrong side of the tracks" in Windsor. Police are advising any supa-clip owners to steer clear of her and her matching hair accessories. She has a history of psychiatric illness as well as an unhealthy obsession with the female form according to one former female lecturer colleague. The second suspect is Katie ***. She is 25 and is the daughter of the "most important man in Henley". She has a history of stalking any male having had contact with a rugby ball and can currently be found most days searching the internet for luxury romantic breaks. She sometimes uses the alias "Jones" due to her general clumsiness.

Mr *** is said to be unnerved about this latest development but told police: "I do not believe that honest and law abiding members of the public such as myself should have to held to ransom by biscuit crazed individuals. I have faith in the police's ability to catch the 38 year old female involved and bring her to justice."

N.B. At this point I would like to make it abundantly clear that I am niethe r38 nor a lesbian – as this appears to imply!!! Grr!!

So thanks Shiny Geeket - good suggestion!!
