From local WI newsletter:

"Mr and Mrs xxxx have recently returned from their winter caravan tour round the Mediterranean (eeek:) and will be giving us a talk at the end of the month.
No doubt Mr xxxx will have some more amusing anecdotes about their time in foreign prats"

My mate in Cambridge has a neighbour (elderly spinster) who writes poems for the Parish mag. He was delegated to tell her why her poem about anglers with "quivering rods" was not appropriate.  It became a bit difficult  noooo:

 noooo:


Quote
Mr Blake, 63, put out warning signs particularly for the children, who were running between 800 yards and a mile depending on their age, to help steer them along the bleak moorland before they reached a track.

There were canes with tape attached to them every 15 yards, and signs around saying “caution: runners” and “race HQ”, all of which disappeared.

How many fecking signs do you need between the start and the finish of a 800 yard race...?  noooo:

I would have thought 'Start' and 'Finish' would suffice... Mongs!

I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.
