Following the dreaded FABBL inspection, it seems my only crime was to have allowed my animal transporter authorisation to slip out of date.
Now this piece of paper in itself I have previously described as a "certificate to say you have a certificate". The latter being the Certificate of welfare of animals in transport.
Which is a nonsense in itself.
So I duly send off my details and copy of this certificate in order to get my animal transporter authorisation updated.
Cue receiving an email to say that my certificate of welfare of animals in transit is not in the correct format. Initially I thought this was because of the way I'd scanned it in, but no, my original, as supplied, certificate is not acceptable and I have to apply for another copy from the issuer.
What a load of beaurocratic baloney
BTW, the fabbl inspection was otherwise fine and he was very sensible/reasonable throughout.
