Hello.
How are you?
My name is Rob Campbell.
I’m 43. I come from Nottingham … like Queen, weird gadgets and Birkenstocks.
By the way, I live in China.
We met a couple of times but it’s so long ago I would totally understand if you’ve forgotten me.
Why are you looking so utterly horrified?
Why are your eyes looking at me in fear?
Why are you running away?
Come back … come back … we could be friends.
What about colleagues?
OK, acquaintances?
Hello? Hello? Where did you go.
Yes, you guessed it, I’m back. And I’m better [read: worse] than ever.
Cue: Evil laugh.

Comment by George October 14, 2013 @ 6:19 amWhich bit or should I just take it as ‘all of it’?
Thought so.

Comment by DH October 14, 2013 @ 7:42 amDon’t be such a smartarse Andy … it’s 6 weeks, or as I prefer to frame it, 30 working days. And no, I’m not joking. And worse, I’m coming to see you.
Comment by Rob October 14, 2013 @ 7:58 amEither the lack of early morning/late night comments are because my return has caught you by surprise, or you’ve all suddenly experienced a dose of ‘good taste’.
I guess I’ll know for certain by the weeks end.
On the positive [read: negative], it’s interesting George made the first comment. Bang goes my belief he was one of the few that had taste, judgement and a life. Guessing Mary and the girls are away … that can be his only excuse and even that is pretty bloody poor.
Comment by Rob October 14, 2013 @ 7:56 amYou caught me at a low moment.
Comment by George October 14, 2013 @ 8:42 amRock bottom some would say..
Welcome back Rob..
Comment by niko October 14, 2013 @ 9:54 amWelcome back Robert. I am glad to see you are back to your annoying best.
Comment by Bazza October 14, 2013 @ 10:56 amWith that sinister smile and an alarming shade of green, you look rather menacing in that photo Robert. A sure sign you are well and you are back. Good show.
Comment by Lee Hill October 14, 2013 @ 1:36 pm‘We could be friends’ I thought you had a policy on this
Comment by northern October 14, 2013 @ 4:53 pmGood point Northern. The negative – at least for you – is your comment shows you must pay attention to the rubbish I write.
Comment by Rob October 14, 2013 @ 5:32 pmThat picture messed with my head. Glad you’re well again though
Comment by northern October 14, 2013 @ 6:25 pmAnd I’m on notice, they’re only allowing me to make tea – since that’s what I’m best at, that’s sort of OK
Comment by northern October 14, 2013 @ 6:43 pmHave you resigned?
Comment by Pete October 14, 2013 @ 10:25 pmYep
Comment by Northern October 14, 2013 @ 11:02 pmI didn’t realise today was such a momentous day. Rob is back blogging. I must admit it’s not what I was expecting your return post would be and yet it feels entirely appropriate. That may say a lot about me, but even more about you.
Welcome back Rob. I hope all went well during your break.
Comment by Pete October 14, 2013 @ 10:27 pmHave you been on the cough sweets again?
Comment by Marcus October 15, 2013 @ 12:13 amGood call.
