Does anyone have a spare anvil...?

As I need one to anchor young Henry with.

As penalty for being a lanky git that works for a charideeeeeeeeee, my desk is currently being raised to the appropriate height by means of some bits of wood under the legs. This highly technical method is far cheaper than buying desks which are height adjustable (and was actually also used by my former employer, Her Majesty's Government; who says civil servants get all the perks?).

Generally Henry is a free range office dog, but there are occasions when it is necessary to secure him - which is where a lead looped around the leg of my desk comes in handy.

Unfortunately this was the case when a new dog came for a temporary stay today - the lovely Holly, a black lab belonging to my colleague. Holly will be showing Henry the ropes when the shooting season starts, the poor thing. Henry was very taken with this sleek and muscular vision of labrador loveliness (Hubba hubba - Henry), and bolted to the end of his lead in an attempt to reach his new lady friend. Sadly, this led to my desk being jerked almost off its blocks, resulting in some rather unseemly grunting and cursing as we tried to right the situation!

I can't find an alternative place to attach Henry to, so if anyone does happen to have an anvil about their person, do chuck it this way...
