WOOOHOOOO... a Young Ones fan!

My desk spans about 3 metres, and has two flatpanel 19" monitors on it. As I am a right-hander, the right hand side is pretty clear for mousepad, jotters etc.

The left hand side of the desk looks like someone's emptied a waste paper skip onto it.

However: I know where EVERYTHING is, down to the last paperclip, and if it's tidied by Mrs Seige, I become frustrated, lost and pained.

Therefore, the only reason I tidy my desk in my home office is when I literally can't find something and the only way I will ever get the needle in the haystack is to clear some crud away.

I HATE tidy desks. Maybe cos I'm jealous that I'm not tidy too!
Still miserable, but ask me anyway...

I too am right handed (except for when I used to play cricket at school but that's not important right now)
I have riffled.
I have a page in mind.
I have a word in mind.
I am concentrating on that word....now. (cue spooky 'thinking' music in the background).

Very close indeed!

Well, almost - it was page 213 Monastic but at least you weren't down the other end of the alphabet!
