VARIOUS telephone directories (e.g. Yellow Pages, Thomson Local, etc), use different headings for the same category – confusing!

One has “auto electricians”, another has “car electrics”; “garage services” – “car repairs”; “joiners” – “carpenters”, and loads of other examples.

But the most stupid I ever saw was “doctors” listed under “physicians”.

I should imaging someone could have flaked out before they figured that one out.

Also, another valid moan. The “Bermuda Triangle” of licence payers’ money, the BBC, has paid out £6 million to contractors who no longer worked for the corporation, but for some reason had never had their contract stopped on the payroll.
