Earners

So the first three months of the BBC's external engagements register are a bit ho hum.  Fees are only declared as either over or under £5000.  Apparently, they don't publish engagements that are 'no fee but good book plug opportunity' . 

Some of the entries are not entirely helpful. Business presenter Sally Bundock got a fee from WBA. West Bromwich Albion ? The World Boxing Association ?  Walgreen Boots Alliance ? 

Mishal Husain was paid as an interviewer for World 50, "a private community for senior-most executives from globally respected organizations to intimately share ideas, solutions and collaborative discovery", headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, and probably featured in the next Bond movie. 

Some are a puzzle. Why would Bryson, suppliers of screws, safety equipment and sealants to the building trade, light upon Declan Harvey of Radio Ulster for a gig ?
