Now I know that that should scare the living daylights out of me but, I`ve been around long enough to skip the "surprised" stage. Venutius, the glossy says it all for me. If I can ask mr Hosty to send it back when finished, I would love to deconstruct it here. Carefully headed "Neighbourhood News", this is a desperate but nonetheless Granny-friendly bit of contrived propoganda. Lots of primary colours and pictures of endearing Tarmac staff are seemlessly blended with shots of flowers in bloom, dragonflies and birdlife. This document has been laid out to draw attention to key points-one of which seemingly suggests that without Tarmac products,the success of a new oncology unit at St James`s Hospital in Leeds would be in jeopardy. This despite the fact that elsewhere, the document openly admits that there are other suppliers elswhere that could supply the 35, 000 tonnes of sand apparently needed from the Nosterfield Quarry. I could go on but, this document represents a frightened little Tarmac. A Tarmac so frightened in fact, that they are clearly willing to trust everything to an individual who has written a transparrently underhand and, some would say, inherently misleading version of "Neighbourhood News". Congratulations-Your day was a success and I hope, just the beginning. How can we help? carpe testiculum.
