Private message to Mr Stephen Rosier
Mar. 30th, 2012 09:59 pmI actually had a spot of bare wood on my desk this morning. For about thirty seconds, before the Taunton folder landed on top of it. I entertain fond if perhaps futile hopes of finding it again sometime next week.
I've gutted at least seven of the regular monthly reports that were piling up in your predecessor's in-box. I've sent you a memo explaining why I personally think they're a waste of time, but if you choose to not to streamline those out now, we can re-examine the work flow a couple months from now. I dunno, maybe you like seeing a regular report on the ongoing quest to requisition alternatives to standard bog rolls. I'll hazard a wild guess, however, that your tastes don't quite run to such a deep concern with the scatological. Let me know if I guessed incorrectly.
Didn't have a chance to tell you because I didn't see the paper until tonight, but that was quite a brilliant job with the Skeeter interview. I have heard from Ms Mortynson that Selwyn was quite impressed with it, which is a very good sign. He always handles the press well, and so if he's pleased, you know you were spot on.
Maybe Skeeter will leave us alone for the next three weeks at least. We can only hope.
(Oh, and remember, the Hogwarts Express is expected in to the station at about 5:00 pm tomorrow. I've made reservations for you and Seamus at 6:00 pm at Gillicuddy's. Tell him he might like to try the Chiddingly hotpot. The servings are generous, big enough to satisfy even a growing and therefore starving teenage boy.)
