I get the impression that governments used to be organised and get things organised when needed. Yet in recent memory, they can't seem to find their way out of a room with one door.

PB loves raw carrot, she’d be quite happy with a carrot on a stick
I take carrot and celery batons to work for a snack. I love carrots. But maybe not a carrot lolly. Lets face it, those little children would wonder what the hell they were.
They tried to get me to eat carrots until the day I left home...help you see in the dark...and make your hair curl.....neither of which would induce me to eat them😂
