EMPTY POOLS: A disappointed holidaymaker has called for Amble’s disused paddling pools to be refilled, branding the situation a ‘total disgrace’.
In a letter to the town council, Mrs J Hubbuck, from Winlaton, near Gateshead, said that her grandchildren were upset because they could not play in the water – like their parents had done years ago – as the facilities were dry.

My local paper had these headlines (no pictures sadly):
"I'LL CHOP YOUR FINGERS OFF SAYS BUTCHER BOY"
"PUDDLE SPLASH VICTIM VOWS REVENGE"
"DUNK IN CHARGE OF TODDER" (sic)

LMAO!
Me and my gf saw those soil-pack things Lurpack were giving out and thought they looked just like cookies! [We knew they weren't obviously...]
But they really do look like choc chip marylands.

WOMEN FLOCK TO TAKE HORSE SEMEN SHOTS
Apple-infused horse semen shots might not be an obvious chaser to spring rolls, but they are causing a stir at the Green Man Pub where they are being served.
The shots are part of the central Wellington pub's entry in the nationwide 14th annual Monteith's Beer & Wild Food Challenge.
