Hmm, only have computer items on my home desk, but at work I have:
1. Pack of corn cakes
2. At least two dirty cups
3. A pair of shoes
4. A shawl
5. A pile of random post-its which I'll never use again but which I'm scared to throw away (even if I can't remember whose number it is!)
6. A very large pile of magazines - appears to be a mess to the uninitiated but is actually very well organised into sections of ready for filing/catalogued/unread/very useful
7. Chocolate
8. Plastic cutlery
9. On Thursdays my guitar
10. In tray, with my notebook and a pen in the top section.
There's nowhere to leave anything at work, so my desk stores everything. This is just the most interesting stuff (which is a bit worrying ...). However the company has a clear desk policy (seriously) so all work related stuff has to be put away at the end of the day. It was terrifying the day we all had to clear our desks so that they could be disinfected (swine flu). Took ages. And then we had to put it all back again.
