Oh, the Vision and Mission statements I have drafted, the funding bids and tenders I’ve had to populate with such utterly meaningless pish, the principles, ground rules and vacuous objectives I’ve been asked to originate for organisations, departments and teams when I was employed by organisations headed up by air-headed subscribers to such plop.

The horror, the horror.

I did once crowbar in 7 or 8 Elvis Costello album titles into a Curriculum Policy Committee paper on Post-Higher Still Assessment Verification though.

Little victories.

And what the ****, in an organisation titled Aberdeen Football Club, is “the football operation”?

Blx.
