Bio: Gabby Logan is a British television presenter and former gymnast who is best known for her football punditry roles on ITV and BBC.
Between 2011 and 2012 Mrs Logan worked on Channel 5's The Wright Stuff before being dismissed due to a confrontation with the show's host Matthew Wright, where, it is reported, Mr Wright lost two teeth after a brief on-set altercation. An unverified witness claimed Mrs Logan punched Mr Wright in the jaw after he made an 'inappropriate comment' about her feet.
Mrs Logan continues to make regular appearances at her local Leeds Homebase, where she judges the bi-monthly pot plant competition.
The boss asked me to send round a company wide email about the importance of keeping the kitchen tidy so that he didn't have to look like a dick. But I didn't want to look like a dick either so I sent round a fun fact about Gabby Logan instead:

Subject: Gabby Logan's Twiglet Allergy
TV sports journalist Gabby Logan has a severe allergy to Twiglets.
Mrs Logan first became aware of her potentially fatal allergy to the snack while filming a promotional advert for the product. Snack manufacturer Jacob’s had thought she’d be the perfect face of Twiglets due to the success of Walker’s hiring fellow journalist Gary Lineker. During the course of the one day shoot Mrs Logan consumed nearly 500g of Twiglets and became severely unwell and was rushed to hospital where she was ministered with 3.5g of adrenaline.
Mrs Logan’s threatened to go public with her ‘grave concerns about Twiglets and their effect on public health’. However, her allergy is so rare that UK law could allow Jacob’s to sue her for slander.
As a result, all Twiglets packages manufactured between April and June 2004 had warning label on them reading ‘WARNING: Do Not Consume If You're Gabby Logan’ before having to withdraw the labeling due to Mrs Logan filing a counter lawsuit for harassment.
Mrs Logan now runs a Twiglet allergy awareness group in the UK which has 9 members, one of whom is Sue Barker.

Sally, I think you need to get your dog checked out. I read somewhere if your dog's urine smells funny it might have kidney disease and/or dog cancer.

Who's dog's urine did you smell? They should take their dog to a vet immediately. It might have kidney disease and/or dog cancer. I'll come over to your desk and give you my uncles number. He is a vet and has his own van.

Please! Stop including me on these email chains! I will have to contact HR if this continues.
Also, the kitchen is in a total state! There are croutons all over the place, teaspoons everywhere and someone left a fish skin in the sink. It's unacceptable!
