And the majority of the other patrons invariably look like they have nowhere else to go anyway and are glad to be out of the sun/cold for a while and can waste some snobby public servant's time!<br /><br />I once suggested to mail or fax a document to the EE and was advised by one of their call centre people that they did not recommend that as the document could get lost. Not that I think your document will get lost, but it was just to demonstrate how much confidence they have in their own.Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275854881032789432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37871177.post-11668195583567203772011-05-07T13:57:13.475+10:002011-05-07T13:57:13.475+10:00Jeanie--------I just love you!

Or perhaps from other places and oozing into Oz? What the heck, they red tape specialists are a scary lot and they all think and act alike. However do they get that way?<br /><br />And thank you for attempting to straighten them out. I'll give you a high-five for trying.
