    I am gagging to read the end of witches abroad, I am at the part where Greebo is transformed in to a human and wrecks the coach!

    The problem I have is that I am at work and have had my lunch! I need Ideas on how I can conceal my book or read the story without being conspicuous!!

    Anybody want to help??

    Put the book on your lap and turn your chair so that the book is nit visible to anyone in sight. Read the book and if you notice someone comeing in your direction, seem as if you are deeply engrossed in your work.

    Do you have a desc with a sort of shelf under the desctop? If so then you can put the book there if someone comes along. I do this all the time> :D

    Pff, too much effort. Where's he going to find a fire at this time of the day?

    What you need to do is place the book in an innocuous position, then create an intricate system of mirrors to reflect the text to a point near your computer screen. You can turn the page by a system of pulleys and levers.

    Simple!

    How about if I photocopy the whole book and read it of the paper then it might look like I am looking at an ordinary work document!!
  13. Rincewind Number One Doorman

    sounds like a plan. Can you easly photocopy an entire book without people seening?

    Build a dummy of yourself and leave it on your chair. Also make a recording of your voice that says 'Wow! Those figures do look good for November.' and loop play it every minute or so. Then not only will you be able to sneak off and read your book but you'll also get brownie points off your boss.

    Either that or take your building hostage using fireams. Then you can get someone to read the book to you and if they make a mistake...BANG...until you find someone with a nice reading voive like Tony Robinson. :)

    Well, there's your answer - start a small controllable fire - just enough for them to run - then sit back and read (occasionally feeding the flames) while they think you are fighting the fire! Won't work for long, I admit - some officious busybody will probably call the Fire Brigade anyway, even if that is your job, but you never know your luck - you might get to finish the book before it is washed away by fire-hoses! :)
