I'm confused.
If Gareth was wrong about a half-body massage being a massage of half his body, what does it mean? I think this is a conundrum for which we need the specialist help of a
Middle Manager specialising in sometimes very unpopular legal stances.
Thank goodness we have one on the workforce!

It is good to see we now have a legal brain on the work force.
I hope we can resolve the conundrem of what exactly a half body massage is. If not we have fallen at the first hurdle and may have to call a meeting of the board of Diecrectors.
Only trouble is, I fear we will never get round to discussing the proper issues
Oh no, we have just enterd the reals of large corperate twaddle

twaddle |ˈtwädl| informal
noun: trivial or foolish speech or writing; nonsense : he dismissed the novel as self-indulgent twaddle. See note at nonsense .
verb: [ intrans. ] archaic talk or write in a trivial or foolish way : what is that old fellow twaddling about? DERIVATIVES twaddler |ˈtwädlər; ˈtwädl-ər| noun ORIGIN late 18th cent.: alteration of earlier twattle, of unknown origin.
From the Oxford English Dictionary.
I think that this is what George Orwell called "NewSpeak". The words I use mean exactly what I intend them to mean, and nothing else.
If we have stepped up to this plate, then the enterprise is really thriving.

Next we will be writting in a mixture of English, Welsh, German anf French
We will soon rival the great minds and power wielded by the EU.
We have the womens malitia with bio war fare handbags, dark glasses and a work ethic of the Borg
Our plans will be encoded in Klingon, me thinks with IT and massage at our disposal and a spot of DIY we can come up with our own Media Channel.
The plan for world domination will soon gain momentum.

El Presidentae

Oui, c'est le travail, et arbeit macht frei! Sorry about this "frallemandaise" attempt at linguistic synchronicity 
We need to wait for the definitive answer on the precise meaning of 'half body massage'. That will put us back on the right road.
We may need to wait a bit. Lawyers write down their opinion and then stuff the paper into a drawer for five or six weeks. Over this time the opinion quickly written "ages in oak" so that when the now mature opinion is published, or sent to the client, it has acquired a dignity that it could not have possessed if it had seemed to be 'off the top of the head'.
Paul must have been aware that being the Middle Manager specialising in sometimes very unpopular legal stances was going to involve a great deal of ageing!

I'm ready in my Borg costume to 'assimilate', and the Directorate of Silliness would like to announce the Code of Conduct for board meetings which members must observe before looking at the agenda.
Board members will be required to place a hanky or pair of y-fronts on the head [depending on whether you are a kilt wearer or not], pencils or knitting needles up the nostrils [Sweet on standby in case of nasal medical emergencies] and say 'Wibble' 5 times. Alternatively, members may place the left hand on the left hip, hold up the right wrist and say, 'I'm a tea pot' at least 3 times.
Rosemary must go from chair to chair providing shoulder massages, our President will make the tea, and John is to shove choccie cake into the Director of SC's & WL's mouth each time he is sarcastic.
Ground Rule: No luncheon vouchers please.

Now about this half body massage, of course I couldn't possibly comment, but if you'd like to make an appointment I'm sure I could fit you in around June, it's £250 per hour plus I'll write you a few letters in advance to remind you at about £50.00 per letter.
When we've established the facts in June we can repeat the whole process in November by when I still won't be able to answer, but I can update you on my lack of progress and charge you again.
By the end of all this, you'll have a file of papers thick enough to support the Aswan Dam, all we'll do is stick it on the scales and charge you whatever we feel like and add a few quid on for travelling that we didn't do!
Easy life.
(PS - It's not really like this!!!
