Bugger, forgot to mention the job I was doing on Stratford has been put back two weeks due to an 'unsafe site'

There is a safety inspection on 22nd but I should be down for the week on 26th.

Almost palindromes. If you move the first letter to the end and read backwards you get the original word in them all.

Not that that is necessarily what you are looking for. It's just that I like to look at things backwards.

No wonder I can never get ahead.

Mr Quint,

Exactly what I was looking for, congratulate yourself and award yourself a prize of your choice.
