Can't get the staff... Nov. 9, 2006

Doctor Doctor : I just can’t get the staff.

Actually, it’s no joke.
It’s hard to get relocated here in The Lake District (second most tranquil place in the country) given the price of houses and rented accommodation. Additionally the problem is the attitude of some people letting houses : adverts read ‘no children, no pets’. Perhaps I should advertise internationally. The Polish are here in droves. Perhaps a Romanian or Bulgarian might do good jobs for me. But they may not be intending to stay long enough and, as with ‘The Problem Like Maria’ programme, they might come undone with their pronunciation.

But not perhaps if they sing their way through work as Front of House…
