Background: Rona works as secretary at a small branch of wholesale seed merchants. They sell grass seed for, among other uses, growing forage grass for milking cows. A recent innovation is the development of a special grass which contains higher levels of water-soluble carbohydrates – sugars - within the cells, and has been proven to raise milk yields by 6%. It’s known as High Sugar Grass, and the phones have been buzzing with farmers wanting to know more about it. Rona is taking many calls which she passes on to the salesmen, and it’s so busy that she’s finding it difficult to get on with her main work. She’s taken plenty of messages too, and at one point several salesmen are standing by her desk, waiting to be handed the various scribbled notes. The stress is getting to her...
Rona (50) – crossly: All this fuss about high sugar grasses... and anyway it must be terribly bad for the cows’ teeth...
