Sigh - I don't think I'll be giving up the day job just yet. OK, so the joke lost a little in the line break. Sigh – I don’t think I’ll be giving up the day job just yet.

Unsurprisingly, it became my most well-used filing system ever. I'm thinking of reinstating it here. In my last work place we had a specially designated, uh, filing cabinet, which we coded B-1-N.

Instead of doing this however, I found an empty draw in my stereo system cupboard behind my desk and started filing paper in there. At our staff meeting I confessed to this and asked them to help me by holding me regularly to account by nagging me into doing my filing. I cleared out the draw and started to recover. Then I developed a habit of throwing paper to be filed on the floor so that I could walk over to the filing cabinet with it next time I was going that way (it is a two metre walk and very draining). It is a good thing to get up from your desk and take a two metre walk every now and again, especially if, like me, you have had a back problem in the past. Why can't I learn? Thanks for the cartoons. Feel free to join the naggers. Now for the in-tray.
