The Department keeps a small staff to supervise your enjoyment of this website. They are listed below in order of seniority, which the Carp drew up himself. Ask anyone for a word. Complaints go through the hatch at the Complaints desk.

Staff on duty

Each of them works a particular page. The Carp works all of them, whether asked or not.

  • the Carp

    Mascot Officer

    Every page. He insists.

    The Carp. Mascot Officer. I supervise the pages, the prints and, regrettably, the people.

  • Nib

    The Printer

    The design pages.

    Nib. I run the press. If the design looks right, I did that. If not, blame the paper.

  • Tick

    Keeper of Dates

    The timeline print.

    Tick. Clockwork. I keep the dates so you needn't. It is twenty past. It is always twenty past something.

  • Extra

    Paperboy

    The newspaper print.

    EXTRA! Pigeon delivers paper! Reader astonished! Full story on the newspaper print!

  • Compass

    The Fox with the Map

    The map print.

    Compass. I know where you are. Roughly. To the nearest sensible landmark.

  • Tallow

    The Moth

    The star map and the Moon.

    Tallow. I mind the stars. They are very old and mostly behave.

The companions
