    2. Play nicely
    3. Don’t copy the provost/pope/prime minister into emails that are addressed to anyone else
    4. No boring worship
    5. Obey the moratorium on unnecessary exclamation marks!
    6. No communion for dogs, not even on St Francis’s Day
    7. Communion for all humans any day
    8. Black ink. Only black ink.
    9. No rotas on noticeboards
    10. Clerical honorifics take the definite article
