Saying it as it is

Just occasionally we trip over someone saying just what we are feeling. This time it was Selina Scott who launched into the Heritage Lottery Fund at a reception in Yorkshire: What the Dickens! Selina Scott in novel row.

It was good to see such an articulate speaker highlighting the insulting and unhelpful adult-child mindset at the core of that organisation. Did anyone consider the heritage instead of whether the bid had been 'impressive' or not? 

Oh to have been a fly on the wall.

PS: we have been a bit quiet recently: not through lack of ideas, simply lack of time. More follows soon.
