What on eath has that got to do with it?
Hi gang, thought you might like me to share this new development from our local council! Here's one for you TF! On returning from a 15 night stay in Dorset, we obviously gathered the post such as it is these days and while I unloaded the tow car of the awning, chairs and all the rest, the OH went through the post. Some time past but she reappeared forcing her way past all the gear now building up nicely in the hall before being transferred to its normal resting place. In her hand was a piece of paper which she waved at me and said "I would like you to read this. It's from the council" I agreed I would just as soon as I had unpacked.
On inspection of the letter from the council, I saw that it was a survey regarding waste recycling and that several questions about how we dealt with waste, what we thought of the collection and service and then the normal personal questions regarding Name, Address Married status etc. Well, I say normal because question 5 in this section leapt off the page and smacked me in the eye. "Sexual orientation?" I read it again and then again to make sure I wasn't seeing things. I looked at the wife and not a word passed our lips. It didn't need to. We both knew what the other one was thinking "When the hell did Sexual Orientation have anything to do with waste management? Who designed this form I thought. Is someone getting off on this sort of thing? It was given the treatment such a form deserves - burnt to a cinder in the wood burning stove - no waste there!
