Like most MPs spent recess time in electorate and doing portfolio stuff.
One of my RWC visits was to the stadium to get briefing on the training that has been put in place for the thousands of new staff that will be taken on next year for bar and catering operations. Getting specialist senior staff through the recently tightened Immigration Service maze is a real issue.
Chatted with a couple of young men who are just finishing chef’s modern apprenticeship. Talk about being employable.
But one thing that became clear is that there is a danger of being short of chicken and lamb if planning doesn’t improve. And decisions made now will make the difference.
So there are bonuses in the Rugby World cup even for roosters and rams.
Very interesting Mr Mallard.
Of course, there are plenty of chicken and lamb carcasses or cuts just a three hour plane ride away in Australia.
Don’t send those old ewes to the works
Is that going to be your 2011 campaign slogan?
Pffffff – serve them tacos!
With plenty of tequilia –
At first I thought this was going to be a thread about Bennett, Collins and Tolley again
This post has been bothering me all day. If I was an old ewe (no rude comments please) I guess there’s a bonus if they kept me on for a few more breeding seasons. But do old ewes breed? And how old is old (in sheep years)?
And what’s the bonus for the roosters and rams if they’re going to get the chop?
Haven’t you heard? Forty is about to become the new thirty
@ Clare – I’m not going to explain why roosters and rams enjoy extra breeding.
@Trevor. Yes well I get your point, from your perspective. But what about the ewes? And the girl chooks? is it worth it?
