CRAZY OFFICIALDOM: This week I have been battling various government bodies with regard to agricultural matters. It was as if I were a terrorist trying to get in to MI5 or MI6. All I requested was the name of the person in charge of the particular organisation. I spent 10 minutes with one employee who said they were not allowed to give it out. ‘Why do you want to know?’ I was asked. ‘To complain’ I replied. Perhaps that was my downfall. Had I been asking to sing their praises, maybe I would have been treated differently, who knows. I got there in the end by another means. Why should government organisations be so secretive? When I have telephoned a major private organisation, I have freely been given the name of the CEO. What are they afraid of?
SMILE FOR THE DAY: Emma: Gill’s called off her wedding. Debbie: But I thought she said this one was really Mr Right. Emma: He was until she found out one of his first name was ‘Always’.
