In a surprise move yesterday, a consultant at the Her Majesty's Treasury was instructed to put his finger on the "zero" button of his computer and to hold it there until further notice.
Somebody told me to do this and then he ran way and hid in the cupboard, said the consultant today.
I'm not really a consultant anyway, just a temp, if you want to know why I'm doing this ask the man in the cupboard.

I will even do this geometrically not arithmetically, so if you win you will own most of the universe.
Or lose a penny.

It seems to be all the rage to be anon these days, I fly in the face of fashion so sign my name accordingly.
P.S sticky buttons are bound to be a problem considering the abundance of wankers at the treasury
Kind of a toss-up between working for Ann Summers or th' Treasury.
Personally I would go for Ann Summers even though (in my one experience of playing with their toys) their toys break or fall apart the moment they are put to use.
Still a better record than the treasury.
Anyway his name might actually be "Mr Anonymous".
If I told you my real name was Samuel Oliphant -or Admiral Sir Reginald Aylmer Plunkett Ernle-Ernle Drax for that matter - would you believe me?
MY NAME IS Admiral Sir Reginald Aylmer Plunkett Ernle-Ernle
Bit of a cough old chap?
No, you are confusing me with the Admiral Sir Reginald Aylmer Plunkett Ahem-Ahem Bit Of A Cough Old Chaps of Worcestershire.
