Settle down

A day in the Gorse Fox's home office was a bit like being the only person in a call centre without laryngitus. GF was on the phone almost non-stop from 9:20 through to 18:30... the only breaks were dictated by capacity issues.

Very little impact has been made on the vast backlog of emails, and there are still a couple of documents to read before Monday.

Meanwhile GF notices a story from Bulgaria:

23 girls brawl over handsome boy

Police were called in Bulgaria after a mass fight broke out between 23 teenage girls over a handsome male student.

The girls, aged between 15 and 18, used brass knuckles, chains and beer bottles to fight over the lad whose name was not revealed.

The girls, from the Bulgarian capital Sofia, agreed to fight it out and skipped school to meet up in a local playground in the Gorublyane district of the city.

Several girls suffered minor injuries and dozens of passers-by reportedly witnessed the incident.

But the alarm wasn't raised until after the fight when a father of one of the injured girls called the police.

So much like his own fantasy college days.
