Are You Living On My Corridor - Update

Earlier in the week, I asked the burning question: Are You Living On My Corridor?

The response to my plea for information has been phenomenal. (There is only the one response thus far, but it is nonetheless a phenomenal response!)

It seems that the fickle finger of the informant is flicking firmly at fellow blogger Recess Monkey.

The Parliamentary grass, sorry, informant says:

"Was reading your blog and as I am not a registered Blogger I thought I'd drop you a mail to suggest a solution to your conundrum, 'Are you living on my corridor?'. I can categorically state that Recess Monkey himself frequently slept in the office of…561 Portcullis House."

Now, I know that the identity of Recess Monkey remains a closely guarded secret, but I am suspicious of the information I have been handed for 2 reasons.

1./ Recess Monkey is a man. And the Parliamentary lodger uses a ladies' wash bag, timotei shampoo and fragranced soap. Now I'm not saying that info necessarily excludes our lodger from being a man - but I really don't think Recess is quite so metrosexual in his tastes.

2./ The second reason is that room 561 Portcullis House is my office. Again this doesn't necessarily mean Recess cannot possibly be creeping into my office at night and making use of the facilities, but I doubt it. (However to be on the safe side, we will be getting the Serjeant at Arms to change the locks to the office as a matter of some urgency.)

As promised, I will be passing all this new information onto Jonathan Creek to investigate, but I have a strange feeling that a last minute piece of evidence may clear the Monkey's name - and we'll find out that there is in fact a second bathroom hidden behind a secret wall that the real perpetrator has been living in since Portcullis House was erected in 1998.
