Shame about the thumb

I like many millions was fascinated by the story of the man who had his thumb surgically altered so that he could manage his new iPhone more easily.

Sadly it was a hoax.

I have cancelled my op to have a USB port implanted in my left nostril.

All is revealed

The rail is to hold mountain-climbers on!

Can you see the cable?



But remember - no mountain bikes!

Off the rails

Young men are attaching these mystery rails along the top of every walkway.

What are they for?

a) MK is at last to get its planned monorail?
b) So that people with wheel chairs can insert their wheels in them?
c) A scenic model railway?
d) A safety attachment for the men who are attaching the rails?

Please add your suggestions.

Gimme shelter

Estates have pulled out all the stops to make sure that the minibus does not get wet. But what about the poor smokers standing in the rain in their little Green Square?

Police want ‘Tesco jails’

We are checking with the Home office whether:

a) Inmates would qualify under the OU Prison Scheme, and

b) They would be able to pay with their Tesco vouchers.
