MEET THE NEW BOSS - NOTHING AT ALL LIKE THE OLD BOSS

As of tomorrow afternoon I will not be the editor of the CFZ Bloggo, (until the weekend, that is). So Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday the bloggo will be edited by someone brand new.

As even the most cursory reader of the bloggo will know, I have a tendency to pepper my postings with 1960s/1970s pop culture references, and I quite often accompany my stories about changes of management with a quote from The Who's classic 1971 song Won't Get Fooled Again by spouting:

"Meet the new boss. The same as the old boss"

Well, in this instance I can't do anything of the sort, because the new boss is nothing like the old boss. The old boss is an overweight anarchist hippy with a bad temper and a bushy beard, whereas the new boss is half his age, female, and can actually spell. She has a distressing tendency towards Grammar Nazism, and probably doesn't know any lyrics by Pete Townshend to quote willy-nilly, but

Ladies and Gentlemen - for the next few days your new boss is Lizzy Clancy. Be nice to her.
