I'm out of the office until Thursday 6th March 2014

I've recently joined a historical reenactment society.
This week we're doing King Charles' famous raid on the empty offices of the Roundheads.
I'm playing one of the Roundheads and to make sure that we keep everything as authentic as possible, I'll be out of the office until Thursday 6th March - just like they were.

If you need anything while I'm away, you can contact Lindsay or Lou.
They'll be playing the Cavaliers, so it's probably best to wait until the raid's begun, otherwise they won't be in either.

I'm out of the office until Tuesday 4th March 2014

On the way to the market the other day I met an old man who sold me some magic beans, which I took home and planted in the garden.
By morning a huge beanstalk had sprouted and grown far up into the clouds.
In the spirit of adventure, I decided to climb the beanstalk, but fell and injured my back, so I'll be bed-bound and out of the office until Tuesady 4th March.
If you need anything while I'm away, you can contact Lindsay and Lou. One of them can lay golden eggs and the other one will likely eat you. Can't remember which is which.

I'm out of theoffice until Friday 28th February 2014

I've joined a violent gang of bikers, high on drugs and hellbent on chaos, so it's probably better if I stay away from the office for a while.

If you need anything while I'm away, you can contact Lindsay or Lou - unless it's something to do with extortion or robbery, in which case call me on my mobile and I'll see what I can do.

I'm out of the office until Thursday 20th February 2014

Fearing I'd be late for work yesterday, I rushed to the office at such speed that I've wildly over shot and it'll take me several days to get back.

If you need anything while I'm away you can contact Lou or Lindsay, both of whom have the good sense to be less hasty.

I'm out of the office until Friday 14th February 2014

I've become more powerful than you can possibly imagine and the insurers have insisted that I stay away from the office in case I mess everything up really badly.

If you need anything while I'm away, just think it and I'll make it happen.

Alternatively you can contact Lou or Lindsay.

I'm out of the office until Friday 10th February 2014

I don't actually work here.

Just like everyone else in my office, I'm just an actor employed to add ambiance to the vacant office buildings on the campus.
Our contracts run for a year and get renegotiated every January and it'll come as no great surprise that there's been some problems with the paperwork AGAIN!
So it looks I'll be out of the office until my agent can iron everything out.

If you need anything while I'm away, you can contact Lindsay or Lou.
As you've probably guessed, those are just their stage names.

I'm out of the office until Monday 1st Febrary 2014

During a recent archeological dig, I've unearthed the remains of an ancient temple.
The locals tell me that desecrating the ruins unleashes a terrible curse on whomsoever dares to cross the threshold, which is a bummer.
On the upside the curse is pretty mild and only renders me unable to work for a few days, so I'll be out of the office until it wears off.

If you need any help while I'm away, you can contact Lindsay or Lou, both of whom are cursed with being awesome.

I'm out of the office until Thursday 30th January 2014

I'm a delicate flower, swaying in the cool breeze of a moonlit night by the side of a quiet country stream.
So I'll be out of the office until I become a casually dressed man sitting at a desk in a office by a computer (with a packet of nuts and raisins in the top drawer of my filing cabinet).

If you need anything while I'm dancing with the wind, you can contact Lindasy or Lou.

I'm out of the office until Wednesday 22nd January 2014

Last night I had an areligious vision in which I saw a bright (if slightly clichéed) light and heard a voice commanding me to travel far from this place and spread a message of love, hope and absence from work.
As a result, not only will I be out of the office until 22nd January, but I would urge you to do the same.

If you need anything while I'm away, you should contact Lindsay or Lou, both of whom have yet to see the wisdom of the Way.

Oh, and you should also be hopeful and love people.

I'm out of the office until Monday 13th January 2014

While researching my family tree, I've managed to unearth our coat of arms.
It depicts a large building with a man walking away from it. Below it you can just make out the motto, written in Latin, which loosely translates as "I will be out of the office until Monday 13th January".

I've now explored the matter in much greater detail, but could find no mention about contacting Lindsay or Lou if you need anything while I'm away, which is strange... because you should.
