    The horror! What next?


    BTW, BrilloPad, is it true you're 3rd ex-wife phoned you to say she had broken down last night up north?

      Nearby Rutland by comparison is like the Wild West. I can remember not too long ago when the Rutland Times front page was splashed with OLD LADY GETS BIKE NICKED

          years ago i worked in OZ in a mining/resources town that was a tad "rough and ready"

          The local paper had a large banner headline.. "our Strippers are safe".. after the local "gentleman's" club was taken over and a refit commenced..

          Much humour where i worked.. cant get much more Sh*t Kicker than glad tidings that the strippers will still be in town..

              Our local rag had a four page special when a local puppy training to be a guide dog graduated and left the area.

                    Subscription only. They'd go out of business otherwise. It's nice that a village / town of 9,000 can sustain a printed newspaper. You do have to write your own articles.
