If they get the bus in, I bet they're really disappointed at Monkey Tree.....But they are not actually camels. People expect to see camels at Camel Creek. The river is the River Camel and there is a creek that runs down the valley, guess what that is called
The llamas are rather nice though.

llamas are rather cool creatures. A friend of mine used to have a couple as, I guess, pets. One of them had been called "Blackie" by his previous owners but that seemed a bit un-PC so he was renamed "the vicar" because he had a white dog ciollar but was black otherwise. Apparently its undesirable for them to be too tame as there's then a tussle for whether you or they are boss llama -better if they are wary of you supposedly. Also seen them in a field of sheep - the guard the lambs from foxes. We were crossing the field and they put themselves between us and the flock and were close to a driving-us-away stance. I was wary and picked up a stick as I wasn't conviinced I could out run them.
Anyhow, they are pretty cool beasts

It's a bit more complicated than that...
You completely hopelessly thoughtless man. Why didn't you tell me that weeks ago? Or even when we spent 20 minutes talking to each other 3 weeks ago, including about this topic! I was completely unaware that that was part of your "bright" idea - and if you think I've got the resources or skills to take back what you've promised to take over from me you must be mad - I've spent the last year resourcing up for completely different skills. And isn't a bit odd that I know better than you do what one of your teams actually does; because, you know, I've actually talked to the manager and listened to her.

Put your farking mobile phone down! Or, if you absolutely, positively, on pain of death must update your poxy status ("I'm blocking the way"?), stand to one side to do it rather than wandering about aimlessly in the middle of the walkway.
(Yes, I've been in that there London today, where it seems that life itself will be extinguished for a sizable number of the population if they can't look at their phone every blinking minute).

They must be paying James Martin an awful lot of money for him to put his name to the "menu" that was served up on Virgin Trains East Coast today...

Why didn't you just say exactly that?

Can't say that at work nowadays, or you'll be accused of not being "diplomatic" and needing training in " people skills"
Guess how I know
I'm only a supervisor, nowadays I must ask the team "what should we do" instead of telling them

You really are taking the p**s! Most likely be out of a job in a couple of weeks and I am sorry to say this but I have no sympathy what so ever.

Ah. Seems unfair to be penalised for being a manager and managing. Very glad I am no longer Head Lad in the yard I used to work at, the current Head Lad rings me from time to time for a vent about the 'snowflake intake' where if they ask them to ride a different horse, they have a meltdown. I have no tact gene so would totally have been fired for telling someone to do their job.
