al desko 

Do you have crumbs all over your computer keyboard as you read the news, do a bit of shopping or book a holiday on the Internet? Whatever happened to the time when our lunch break was a welcome excuse to leave the office and picnic in the fresh air? There are so many more reasons to eat al desko (while sitting at your desk) rather than al fresco.
I have so much work to do... I'll just eat a sandwich al desko today.
