Nag, nag, nag

From my local paper:
'An awareness campaign advising seniors in our community about ways they can make themselves more water efficient through the ToiletSmart program was launched yesterday. “ToiletSmart has proven to be a very successful and popular tool to help each of us play a part in looking after our environment and in particular save water,’ the Minister for the environment said.”
Well that’s great, isn’t it? It looks like even when you’re old, the powers that be will still be on your case – whatever you’re doing, wherever you are.

  1. Lovely how they commandeer the word "popular" isn't it!

    p.s. I've just seen below that you're a fan of Les Merray. Myself also - very gratifying :-)

  2. Terribly vulgar too. Why not LooSmart?

  3. Gadjo - I actually met him when he came here to give a reading (see Hero Worship)
    Gaw - I think you may have got a little bit behind in your linguistic re-education program, nothing that can't be sorted out with hard work and the right attitude, I hope.
