It might have been the dog's bollocks; but it's just a dog's breakfast.

A good number of people who spend there day either looking for work to do or avoid being given a job to do(depending on their own work ethics).
There is also plenty of needless doubling and trembling of roles and responsibilities.
The staffing structure is long overdue an overhaul. It would be nice to think some of the superfluous senior cushy numbers will be in the sights.
Looks like shaking Stevens has also had some input too!

Indeed. Like the Woody Guthrie verse you never hear when 'This Land Is Your Land' gets an airing: 'Sign was painted, it said private property; but on the back side it didn't say nothing'. (Of course, that is a double negative. But I know what he means.)

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

Well, some people think an Oxford comma's as much use as a hole in the head. But boy do we need a hole in the head. Several. How else would we see, hear, smell, speak, breathe, eat, and drink?

Well, the team may very well be homely today, but that apostrophe is an uncanny intruder.

If I were positively spinning a £35m bung I'd make sure to spell the benefactor's name correctly. [Ed.]
