Tristan Fawcett-Underwood: Ten types! And they’re fucking huge!

Sherilyn Boden: Are you overdosing on sugar already?

Tristan Fawcett-Underwood: CAN YOU TELL??????

Sherilyn Boden: Did Jan like her yogurts?

Tristan Fawcett-Underwood: You’re so sweet. She’s in the middle of writing you an email now.

Tristan Fawcett-Underwood: BTW ignore everything she says about me.

Tristan Fawcett-Underwood: BTW I’m still going to nick hers from the fridge.

Sherilyn Boden: Leave her yogurts alone! BTW!

Tristan Fawcett-Underwood: Humph. Can I take her yoghurts instead? Those ones have an ‘h’ so can’t have come from you.

Sherilyn Boden: You spell tomaHto and I spell tomato.

Sherilyn Boden: Swap one for a muffin?

Tristan Fawcett-Underwood: Not going to happen. I’m feeling territorial. Anyway, if you posted the yogHurts from the States, they’re going to be a bit ripe by now.

Sherilyn Boden: They’re from a British company, doofus.

Tristan Fawcett-Underwood: I’m going to tell her they’re from Chicago.

Sherilyn Boden: If I could type facepalm emojis on our internal IM service then I would.

Subject: Thank you

Tris,

I know you’re on holiday at the moment so won’t see this, and it’s like midnight in the UK anyway. But I wanted to say thank you. I don’t know how you did it, but the delivery company that brought all the pizzas to the office this evening had one with my name on the outside of the box, and it was drowning in pepperoni and hot sauce.I only told you my dream pizza toppings ONCE and you remembered. You’re incredible. I wish you lived here.It made me cry. In a hot sauce way, which is good.

Chat when you get back,

Your friend,

SherilynX
