And the award for the most creative way to return a borrowed pen goes to...


...Mr Skimble Shanks, for this little beauty that further brightened up my already bright day!

Take one borrowed Miss Bic for Her* biro, and cunningly disguise it in a padded envelope sent from Singapore, complete with customs declaration marks.  Make and print a fake label with the pen owner's work address, and attach to the front of the envelope.  Put this envelope inside a company internal mail envelope and send to the pen owner...

Maybe it's just cos it's Friday, but I was tickled pink to receive this surprise foreign package at work.
(I was also very glad to get my pen back, as my other one has just run out**.)

Thank you!

**As a woman, I can't be trusted with more than one pen at a time.
