As evidenced by the fact that within 48 hours of issuing said advice a woman set herself on fire transferring fuel from a jerry can.

Well... she wasn't told to do it in her kitchen. With the gas stove on.
Even I might want to give Francis Maude a pass on that.

How much did his parents hate him BTW? At least give him a butch first name FFS! Like Hilary.

Well, I won't pay for it anyway. I'd have taken a pound of sausage if he'd slipped it to me gratis.

A hamster found itself stuck to the bars of its metal cage in Northamptonshire after chewing a magnet that had fallen off a Spiderman toy.

Kate Meech, of Bugbrooke, near Northampton, returned home from a day out to find the beloved family pet, named Smurf, suspended in mid air.

After initial confusion, Mrs Meech spotted the outline of a circular object protruding from the pet's cheek.

She realised the pet had eaten a magnet and become attached to the metal bars.

That was tasty! Thanks Griff. I'd like to revise my previous statement. That model looks like some goat cheese I had once, and that goat cheese was definitely ew. It was molded (lol) in a truncated cone, about the size and shape of a Yoplait yogurt container, and very hard. I won't get that one again.

A fairy penguin stolen over the weekend from a theme park on Queensland's Gold Coast has been safely recovered.

Authorities say the penguin was found at Southport last night, exhausted but in reasonable health.

Police allege three men aged 18 to 21 broke into Sea World on Saturday night, swam with the dolphins and stole the penguin on their way out.

The men have been charged with trespassing, stealing and unlawfully keeping a protected animal.
Duuuude, we were soooooo drunk .....

Hang on....'fairy penguin'?

Not really 'weird' but didn;t want to start a whole new thread...

Recently the BBC upped sticks and moved a large part of its broadcasting operation from London to Salford (next door to Manchester).

Salford is the town I was born, and I have at various times in my life lived in different areas. It's also where my Mum was brought up and where a good deal of my family still live.

There are nice parts of salford....it isn't all an inner city nightmare but...

BBC staff at their new Salford HQ have been offered bodyguards after being targeted by criminals.

One worker was hit by an airgun pellet while cycling to work, others have complained of assaults and there has been countless thefts of laptops and iPhones.

And one employee even lost a rental car after giving it to a thief posing as a Hertz employee.
*wipes a fond tear*

Ahh...my birthtown. So proud.

Don't judge our penguins for their lifestyle choices.

Nice work by the ersatz hertz chap.
