At 5:26pm G2 dispatched its 36 pages to the printers to a spontaneous round of applause - the first pages of the new Berliner to go to our print site at Stratford. Sport has done 11 out of 20 pages and the news pages (G1) have sent 11 pages.
The only thing that is going wrong at the moment is me. The battery on my camera has run out and will have to be recharged and my back-up phone camera (a 7710 Nokia) won't Bluetooth it to my computer. A supergeek has just dropped from the sky in the form of Ben Hammersley who is trying to sort it.
G2's luck was in. At the last moment the editor noticed that three huge standing caps (that start each paragraph) read T I T.
Meanwhile, foul play is afoot. I apparently gave too much information away about a story Richard Norton-Taylor was working on and the Times has picked it up (is there no honour?). I will be more discreet in future as a career move.
