Salient Notes

Probably the most Important Job in the Salient office is the onerous task of making tea. This week the regular staff were spared the trials of burnt fingers and hopping from one leg to the other waiting for the zip to boil by Colin (Florence) Feslier, ministering angel of the New Zealand left. Graeme Simpson, Audrey Young, Maxgot Bourke and Mark Derby had milk and no sugar while Allison Mackay. Claire Smith, Lynn Peck, John Ryall and Karen O'Neill sat under the light table stirring. The silence was abruptly shattered by the tea-pot lid flying off and John Henderson poked his head out "Did you ever see such a thing as a drawing of a muchness", "Really, now you ask me" said David Tripe very much confused, "I don't think....". "Then you shouldn't talk" said Richard Siegert. This piece of rudeness was more than Derek Fikkers could bear. He got up in great disgust and walked off, taking Stephen Hall and David Rutherford with him. John Henderson fell asleep instantly and no-one else took the least notice; the last time he saw them they were trying to put John back into the tea pot. "Why do they keep writing these inane staff notes?" asked Christine Haggart of Anthony Ward. "I suspect it is so Roger Steele can get a mention as editor, and Keith Stewart can take the credit for the pictures". "No," said David Waghorn "they exist to give Les Slater something to do." "But I didn't do it....." said Les.
