My Desk at WorkMy ongoing collection of fruit stickers... Battery charger. The Mrs. In an Alfred Hitchcock style. The ubiquitous stapler. The hot line. Dial L-A-R-D for breakfast. Lunch. Two packets of Super Noodles, chicken and herb, 98% fat free. It's not food, just carbs... Ruler. Cheapo pens that I've picked up at trade shows... My Kermit the Frog mug. Knackered, and only fit as a pen pot. My Filofax. I've had this years, through loads of different jobs. Well pre-PDA. It's made of rubber and waterproof. 8780 tracks, and growing... TARDIS mobile phone thingy that goes off every damn 5 minutes so I never turn it on. A really heavy knight that Daz and FoxyTallChick brought me back from Majorca [EDIT: sorry, Malta]. My USB powered mug warmer. A god send. My bag, and a load of sweaty stashed cycling gear. Coffee, black, strong, no sugar. Basil Brush. Goes 'Boob Boom' when you press his paw. I never grow tired of it. A Bantha, with Tusken Raider. A bottle of Strawberry flavoured water. No idea where that came from... Nokia 6131 A 3 year old potato on a stand. From a Bonzi potato kit someone bough me one Christmas. Has seen better days. 1GB Flash drive. Right speaker. Left speaker. Cheapo PX-921 digital headphones. Funding and grant application stuff. A big heap of current work-in-progress. A Colonial Viper model, from the original series of Battlestar Galactica. Out of date eye-drops. Don't know why I'm keeping them. HP optical mouse. Not wireless cos it used to freak out the wireless mouse of the bloke who sat opposite me. Wallet. Poised and waiting for 'The Sandwich Man'. Burger King promo Millenium Falcon. A big wadge of peoples business cards. Seiko Smart Lable Printer 240. A stack of envelopes. Lego Darth Vader with light-up sabre. The one that came in the TIE Fighter kit. Sweet. Mini Mates Magneto. My hero. Back when I had crappy monitor he used to make the screen go all wobbly... The Metaluna Mutant. Internal extension numbers, usefull addresses etc. A spare iPod USB cable. "Give me more power"! Shed loads of notes from meetings... Wet fish wrist rest thingy. Something important that needs doing yesterday. Rechargable batteries, headphone and cable adaptors, fuses, highlighters, cable splitters and a sacet of silica gel... Highlighter pens, half a packet of sugar free mints, a few rechargable batteries, spare cycle lock keys and more audio adaptors... Logitech cheapo computer microphone. More fruit stickers, cos it winds the guys in IT up... "Zaphod Beeblebrox for President" badge. Charity and chugger stickers. Toy packaging. More important contacts stuff that I might need in a hurry. More fruit stickers, every one different... Meetings and reminder notebook. Important things I write down in meeting, doodle on, then never read again. Hotel Chocola catalogue that came in the post this morning. Will make it into the bin by evening. An HP d530 CMT (DG061A) Intel(R) P4 2.66GHz, 1.25 GB of RAM bag of spanners. More headphones, iPod ones, with Griffin EarJams for cycling. Other peoples work that they have abandoned on my desk. Desktop mantra. "Get Back to Work - you are not being paid to believe in the power of your dreams". Infinate Flickr, in Firefox... My very own personal private fork. A book on internet video that I've had for ages and just got back when we moved from downstairs. It was making Choppers monitor an inch higher by propping it up, 'till 2 days ago. Free www.holdthefrontpage.co.uk coaster. Water cup. The most incipid green thing, ever. It actually makes my desktop glow radioactivly with reflected light... The Rexel 'Gladiator'. The biggest god-damn stapler in the world. A bright orange reminder as to which way up the headed paper goes in the colour printer. Thje Pilot G-2. Finest damn piece of stationary ever invented. A blob of handy BluTac. Tetsuo, in mid transformation. A weird kinda kit thing that is a nightmare to put back together every time it falls appart. A Christmas present from Ben last year. A black plastic file. Inside is a book my old boss bought me that he thought I'd like. It's full of incomprehensible maths. I flicked through it then hid it. It only came to light when I moved desk. Need to hide it again, properly... It's taken me a long time to get the perfect keyboard. It's nothing fancy, it just feels right. Contains more dead skin than all the George A Romero films put together. Not to be 'run' with... Sage RSS reader. 
I work for AND (Associated Northcliffe Digital), the web R'n'D wing of the Daily Mail and General Trust. I'm only uploading this for the group, and to capture my desk while it's still clean. I just moved desks 2 days ago. I've moved from downstairs to upstairs and from 'Development' to 'Projects'. Same job though, pretty much. There's probably only my good mate Duncan who draws more power in our office. The guys in IT (how-do Mr. Rodda) used to call my old desk 'The Shanty Town'...
