Don't you just love them.

A couple of weeks ago I received my bi-annual invitation to participate in the health services 'colorectal cancer' screening process.

Needless to say I did participate although I doubt you'll want a resume of that process!

What I particularly noticed on the invitation letter is the amount of agencies and organisations involved with this simple procedure.

Including the government there are nine different logos belonging to these organisations dispersed around the perimeter of the letter.

However, the one which caught my eye and bought a smile to my face was the logo of the Regional Health Agency. Obviously written in French  it becomes Agence Régionale Santé.

Their logo?  ARS.

Well, given the circumstances it made me smile.

That does not look like another at all. He is off to Spain anyway and nothing like as good looking.

It is my distant cousin known as Braggart Banana who is known to reveal himself on the Tube especially at rush hour. Half the passengers run away, the other half run towards him. Can’t think why! It always gets him somewhere to plonk himself
