The Hound reckons there must be a whole lot of red (which is appropriate) faces at the red meat promotion agency Beef + Lamb NZ after its major SNAFU in this year’s Golden Lamb Awards (The Glammies).
The 2015 Glammies competition was recently declared a ‘no-contest’ because of a mistake by the testing facility in analysing the data to ascertain the top 20 finalists. BLNZ says it was made aware of this issue by the testing facility after all the media hoo-ha it had raised about the awards and after doling out the winner medals at this year’s Wanaka Show. Your old mate thinks people should spare a thought for this year’s ‘winner’ Hamish Buchanan who, after holding the title for a week, then had it snatched off him. Not a good look for BLNZ.
