Woah, I'm going to Barbados

Lib Dem watch have been complaining that I have not written them a poem. I have not really got the time for that at the moment, but I heard these lyrics somewhere recently and wondered if they might suffice for the moment.

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Captain Tobias Wilcock welcoming you aboard
Coconut Airways flight 372 to Bridgetown Barbados
We will be flying at an 'ight of 32000 feet and at an airspeed of approximately 600 miles per hour
Refreshments will be served after take-off, kindly fasten your safety belts
And refrain from smoking until the aircraft is airborne

Woah, I'm going to Barbados
Woah, out to the palm trees
Woah, I'm going away from Whitehall
Woah, to the sunny Carribean sea

I don't wanna be PM all my life
I want to join a high paid consultancy
Fly away on Coconut Airways
Leave everyone else stuck on BA

I've ordered my pills for Avine Flu
Everyone else knows what they can do.
Fly away on Coconut Airways
Leave old Blighty to Big Ears

Woah, I'm going to Barbados
Woah, out to the palm trees
Woah, I'm going away from Whitehall
Woah, to the sunny Carribean sea

Far away from London town and the press
Who cares if the NHS is in a mess
We don't need parliament to help us think
All I need is another nice drink

Woah, I'm going to Barbados
Woah, out to the palm trees
Woah, I'm going away from Whitehall
Woah, to the sunny Carribean sea

Ladies and gentlemen, we are now commencing our approach into Bridgetown Barbados
The weather is fine with approximate temperature of 90 degrees Fahrenheit
The sky is blue and the palm trees are really cool
Captain Wilkock and his crew hope you have had a pleasant flight
And that you will fly Coconut Airways again

Woah, I'm going to Barbados
Woah, out to the palm trees
Woah, I'm going away from Whitehall
Woah, to the sunny Carribean sea

NHS reorganisation No 3,493,233

Followers of my blog will have seen the NHS question about how many reorganisations have we had. We've yet another. The number of PCTs (Primary Care Trusts) nationally is to halve. This means merging East and North. (and then probably HoB and south). It would be nice if people would stick with one structure. There is a quotation ( Which sadly does not appear to be a true quotation ) We trained hard . . . but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form up into teams we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization. But has to have been originated by someone. The web link shown goes through the derivation which appears to be more linked to an anonymous British Soldier WW2 than any Roman or Greek General called by a name perming 2 out of (Gaius, Galus, Petronius and Arbiter).
