Diary of a Notting Hill Nobody | 4 August 2007

Monday

I can’t take much more of this. Even Daddy says I need a holiday and our family motto is ‘Don’t Make a Fuss’ (it sounds better in Latin).

It’s just unbearable, non-stop horridness. Every time we think we’ve got on top of it another Dipwig (Deeply Irrelevant Person With Grudge) comes crawling out of the woodwork to have a go at poor Dave. I wouldn’t mind but they’re all complete losers. At least DD has come out fighting for us. He’s on a major military discipline metaphor high.

He addressed the morning strategy meeting and it was really exciting. Lot of talk about something called the Maginot Line and a v interesting slide show entitled ‘From Static Defence to Penetrating Counter-offensive’. He was quite masterful. Made me think Dave would look nice with a bit of a wave in his hair. Maybe some grey.

Spent the afternoon working my way through the list of people we offered a peerage to then never coughed up.
