Got a bit lost in the middle of that but think I agree with all those :face-approve:
Being in a position of regularly having to get into the nuts and bolts of other people's big projects via their glossy monographs, it's obvious which ones have been slung together by harrassed POs to a deadline, some appalling inconsistences are usually there once you start trying to actually use the things, gone are the days when the site director could take his time and produce a rounded masterpiece without contradictions - having said that I suspect one getting produced 2012/13 with my name on bits of it will suffer the same affliction despite all efforts to the contrary, the contractual deadline's just too tight what with trying to fit in with specialist timetables, getting C14 etc, another year would have been better but of course tthe client needs to wrap-up the temporary companies, bank accounts and whatever created for the development. The DoE was never in such a rush.... :face-crying:
