    Windy Militant leads his Basque like corngrinders to war,
    With windmill sails and bombs with nails they smash the town hall
    door.
    But Snorty and the boys arrive with one big erstwhile crew,
    Whereupon they bring about a military coup.

  5. The daft thing is, if they'd only known, they could have hied themselves
    along to the nearest Supergrid transmission line and had themselves a
    natty little light show waving those same fluros around.

    I've very occasionally picked up a copy of one or the other, or the
    express like what I read on the plane home last weekend. Sure, they do
    tend to wind me up a bit, but the key point is that there's so little
    in them that this feeling doesn't last very long.

    [Daily Mail}
    A couple of years back traveling with SWMBO and eldest we stopped at a
    little thief where the mail was being given away. Melissa & I managed
    to find something like 30 grammatical and spelling errors in the first
    two pages whilst waiting for the breakfast to arrive.[1]
    About the only paper I ever actually buy, albeit it rarely.

    [1] Even allowing for my appalling spelling and grammar.
