I'm out of the office until Monday 8th July 2019

I'm on an expedition to the Andes so I'll be out of the office until Monday 8th July.

You may be interested to know that, before we reach the mountains, our journey will take us to the end of the Wristies. In addition, we'll be travelling through a number of towns and villages, all of whom have names based on the punchlines to trite jokes.

If you need anything while I'm away, you can contact Sam.

I've been seeing a therapist recently so that I can finally try dispel the misconception I've always had that I'll be in the office from 13th until 20th February.

Yesterday we had a breakthrough.

I'll be out of the office until 21st February. If you need anything while I'm away, you should contact Lou.

There! I said it.

My God, that feels good.

Years ago I started a software company with a friend of mine.
We had one simple goal - to automatically deliver a message to anyone looking to get in touch with me via email, informing them about my absence from work over a specific period of time.

Finally, here's the result: I'll be out of the office until Wednesday 2nd January 2019.

I'm out of the office until Thursday 18th October 2018

I was in a high stakes poker game last night and gambled away everything - my money, my car, my cats, my family, the jar of marmite I keep under the desk next to my shoes.
The only thing I had left to lose at the end of it all was the work I was going to do on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Predictably, I blew that too, so I'll be out of the office until Thursday.

If you need anything you can contact Rosie - she won big, so she'll be in all week.

I'm always worried that I'll have to come into the office and then do some work.
So it's with a great sense of relief that I can tell you I won't be in until Monday.

If you need anything while I'm away, you can contact Sam or Kristin.

I am of course joking.
I live for my work and will be inconsolable until the weekend is finally over.

I've painted myself into a corner, so I won't be in the office until the paint's dried.

The can says "touch dry in two days", but I'm going to leave it until Monday, just to be on the safe side.

If you need anything while I'm away, you can contact Kristin or Sam.

Someone left a package outside my front door this morning.
Inside was a box filled with (and I could hardly believe it) two days off work.
Neither of them was really my colour, but you know, gift horse and all that.

If you need anything while I'm off, you can contact Sam or Rosie.

I've been feeling a little hoarse recently, but it's become much worse over the last few days and he's run off while I was holding the reins, dragging me out of the office.

If you need anything while I'm trying to cut myself loose, you can call me on the mobile.

Spelling never my strong suit.
