I think we are making good progress with Coke. The scripts are in great shape and ready to brief out as storyboards the moment you give the nod. Liam and I have done half a dozen posters, which we’re very pleased with. I also have three teams working on press, radio, point-of-sale and guerrilla media ideas and I’ll be looking at their first thoughts at 12:30. So if it’s cool with you guys, I’d like to show you everything at 4:00. I know you were talking about rewriting Dan’s presentation, Harriet, so it would be good if you had the work in your head before you make a start. E me with your feelings . . .

You’re making life easier already, Pinki. I’m free whenever you need me.

It sounds like you’re on top of it, Pinki. I sincerely hope you’re not just full of shit like your boss. I’ve got twenty-five minutes at 4:00. I guess that’s when I’ll find out.

Somehow I managed to get on a train home last night. Sorry I lost you but that guy Howie gave me the best E in the world. Ever. I was totally off my face. Liam’s cute. I think. Can’t honestly remember. Hit “reply” if you’re still talking to me . . . Debs

Thank you for your concern, Susi. It’s good to know who your friends are. I feel quite strong. I learnt how to deal with death during my time working alongside you . . . Zxxx

1. When you parcel up those drugs pop in a bottle of Laphroaig. It’s proving quite impossible to find a decent malt whisky on this
île tragique.
2. Inform Pinki that she
will
fax me all Coke material
now.
Remind her who saved her job last week when she lost her mind.
3. And tell her as well that
under no circumstances whatsoever
is she to use my office. She may have temporary possession of my title but there is no way I will tolerate her performing Feng Shui with my furniture.
4. Remind me to write to Michelin/World’s Leading Hotels about le Touessrok. Its standards have plummeted since last I was here. It took room service six attempts to deliver a correctly prepared eggs Benedict.

Think I worried about you? You’re the girl who went AWOL for five days in Fuengerola. As long as you had fun in the bright lights it’s OK by me. At my new desk now. If Liam leans over far enough he can just see me from his office. Actually he can just see the tempting flashes of my Calvins that I’m giving him. Brain’s telling him to work. Knob’s got other plans. He’s on his way over: BRAIN 0, KNOB 1. See you later . . . Lolx

What is Liam doing under your desk? Did you not read my earlier note re fraternisation? Consider this a friendly warning.
