Reminds me of a story I heard about Arnold Weinstock (director of GEC Mechanical Handling in Melksham) who, apparently, had his (very long) driveway laid with white marble chipping. On inspection he noticed that not all the chips were white, and made the company take out, by hand, every non-white chipping before he would pay!
