Dr Bognor's up in arms. "Why aren't we working on the new project?", "Why haven't we had the design meeting?", "Who's holding things up?"... and so it goes on.
As GF is responsible for the technical solution he explained:

• GF does not go to a design meeting "half-baked"
• You can't build the solution until you have the design
• You can't do the design until you have the requirements

Now get of GF's back, or suffer the consequences.
