Didn't the "dukwtastrophe" occur in "grief central"?

Seems somehow appropriate . . . .

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I suspect the original joke may have been the Scally spelling of "Dukw".   whistle:

Don't disagree DS - I think you'reabsolutely right.
"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." 

Well, someone had to say it!

 Shocked:

Quote
Mr Warren Jr said his testicles first grew to a colossal size when in 2008 he squashed them while he was asleep.
  eeek:  how?    No, please not Mr Warren - really don't want to know

Quote
But now, as the Sun reports, he is worried he may never be able to make love to a woman again after he claimed the operation left him with a one-inch penis.
After putting your face all over the interweb with that story Mr W then I suggest more like may never get the chance

Well, whatever, nevermind

In Scallyland, a DUKW amphibious lorry, which had been converted into a water taxi, sank.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-21990326

No doubt blinded by the expected avalanche of compensation claims from the unemployable millions of Merseyside, the normally untouchable good reporting of that fine publication, the Liverpool Echo, regressed to spelling the name of the vehicle as DUCK.

The soft, arrogant, uncaring and privately educated Southerners of the VP then proceeded to snigger in their shandies about it.

For a more detailed explanation, PM Nick.
