Loadsa Money

Loadsa money

Bulging Budget Corporation, aka BBC, has a big budget to spend every year.

Usually large organisations allot a budget for a department or project each year and the following year the budget is expected to increase with or above inflation. Each department will guard its allotment budget fiercely – and here is the irony – even if they don’t need it.

So, if after counting their coins for a project they have some pennies left over, the excess amount will be spent on whatever – just to show that all the money was needed and to obviate a reduction in allowance next year.

The accumulation of excess cash can buy orchestras, pianos, guitars, violins, didgeridoos, bongos, tom toms, whistles, and even enormous organs.

Also the money coming in is guaranteed safer than any bank investment.
When you have safe spondulicks like that, boy, you can party. You can party in the name of entertainment. You can party so loud you can’t hear when your punters have a request. All that money. All those riches. All that power.

Loadsa money, loadsa noise, loadsa music. Yah –hooo. We –heee.

Eruptions

Eruptions
Explosions and bangs. That’s what you get with volcanoes.
The BBC put on a programme last night (pre-recorded presumably) in light of the recent volcanic eruption in Iceland.

I hadn’t planned to watch this but I found it very interesting and informative.
It would not be authentic to create such a topic without the obvious sounds of crashing explosions. What I found amazing was that despite the expected and appropriate loud bangs and flashes the dialogue was clear and easily understandable. Whenever there was narration the sounds were dimmed down.

It would be really ground breaking if the BBC could sustain this quality.

Magic

Magic

The BBC are brilliant at creating the illusion of clever programmes with rolling hills, coastal scenes, aerial views, forest glades, desert plains, seascapes, river routes, country tours, city streets, wildlife wonders. The trick the Beeb try to fool us with is that there is music everywhere.

We know there isn’t music everywhere. It amazes me that they fool so many. The people who are fooled actually know they are being fooled and to me shows how stupid they must be to accept being fooled. The BBC are successful in insulting the stupid and getting away with it.

Now that’s Magic
