kirku 1,339 Posted July 2, 2021 I love the Pink Un website, and not just because it's essentially a portal to the message board, but for the type of hard hitting investigative journalism that uncovers monumental news such as this Now that's what I call news!

ncfcstar 292 Posted July 2, 2021 I did have to laugh when I saw that tweeted this morning. I immediately assumed it must have been a typo and a k was missing from the £73 - but no, she genuinely did win just £73. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nuff Said 5,178 Posted July 2, 2021 I have kicked myself ever since for not keeping a copy, but years ago my local freesheet had a story about a couple of petty thieves who’d been identified with DNA evidence - “Caught by their own saliva”. Hard to beat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We kept that up on our wall for years as it conjured up an image of a belligerent brassica waddling into the bar and nudging a local's elbow. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A Load of Squit 5,221 Posted July 2, 2021 On the radio this morning they talked to (not my billing) the countries foremost Harry Kane lookalike. They asked what type of work he did and he said it was mainly kids parties (how bad must those parties be?) and radio work. RADIO WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. If your a radio booker and you need a lookalike ( anyone, I can do them all) just PM me. 😀 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't deliberate Corkie. When I worked on a newspaper, the racing results were always set in 4pt, very small.
