(no) Flippin ‘ heck – Elf n’ safety

As the Herts Advertiser once again crashes through my door (I wonder if the cherubic scamp uses a cricket bat to bash it through?!) I read with interest that the St Albans Pancake Day race has now become a walk, due to slippery conditions underfoot ~ the council’s Elf & Safety dept have banned running.

Flippin’ heck !

What’s First Capital Connect’s excuse?

    Actually I did . . . and this was the lead story referred to by Lord Young on BBC breakfast this last week, who is charged with looking into ‘Elf & safety issues of ‘over enthusiasm’ for the new government.

    I see also that the BP bosses are now facing charges of “gross negligence or wilful misconduct” – does the same apply to Eng-er-land Manager Fabio Capello.

    After last night’s lacklustre performance (the poor souls are only paid £160K per week) as the “importance of being earnest and ethnically northern” commentator intoned; “they’re frustrated; they look haunted by the England shirts; they’re playing poor club football in international shirts” I’m now looking to Lord David Young to look into my ‘Elf & safety.
