Not much to say this round, as our printer has stopped feeding paper, and has taken up a good deal of my time. Wilma Vialle read out the pairings off my screen, and we're scrambling for a replacement.

Sam Kantimathi helpfully writes to invite me to clarify that we are replacing the printer, not the irreplaceable Wilma.
