When I said "From a great height..." Thats exactly what I meant.

It feels like many years ago, and it might well be by now, that I told an enthusiastic-sounding social worker if he didnt want to listen I'd just go over his head, and over their successive heads, those who wouldnt do anything.

The Ombudsman still cannot intervene, because the Council tried to tie me up in Red Tape, but they really have exhausted the roll by now, decades of it. So, he landed this on the desk of someone who will.

Outstanding, thank you Mr Pettigrew of the LGO, you Sir are a gentleman and a scholar.

The county CEO probably does not take kindly to seeing letters like this, he handles a massive budget and only talks to men in suits. One can only guess his expression upon handing it to an underling to make it go away.

However it then landed on the desk of an underling of theirs, who obviously has other things on their mind at the moment. Typical... Well, the Piste is probably booked, you go enjoy your holiday love and dont worry about MorningStar and Bea. Doubtless you took one look at the top of the paper trail and didnt dig any further.

That, or you dont trust your underlings to handle it in your absence. Hell, I wouldnt, look at the mess they already made...

So, I wait patiently until the 9th March to see what they come up with. It'd better be good, or there'll be scratching of the Quill again.

And you can keep your leaflet. If I wanted to punish the frontline carers, who are inundated, underfunded and understaffed, I'd have annoyed one of your underlings with this in the first place.
