A vicar has been fined and
placed on the sex offenders'
register
"for romping with a
Henry Hoover", reports The
Sun. John Jeffs, 74, was
caught "thrusting"
" into the
vacuum cleaner's nozzle,
naked except for a pair of
stockings, by a shocked
churchgoer who walked into
his office at the The Baptist
Centre in Middleton Cheney
in Northamptonshire. Jeffs
saw the witness, but carried
on, later telling police he did
it because he felt
"naughty".
He was found guilty of
indecent exposure at
Northampton Magistrates'.


"Bible in one hand print int tother ". Is an ages old saying to describe the clergy isn't it?

I see United Utilities and the various water companies are at it again with hose pipe bans coming in. Years of neglect of the infrastructure in this country at the expense of giving profits to their share holders result in 88 million litres of water a day being wasted! This is bordering on criminal and I remind them of this every time they send me a stock e mail with tips to save water. They want to draw more water from rivers than they are usually allowed but are now faced with the eco lot who say that fish will suffer etc so they have a formidable enemy now facing them.

Bloody crooks.

Should Premier League football clubs travel so far for pre-season? - BBC Sport

the answer is of course no. Long haul air travel should be priced out by taxation for most people with proceeds being used for climate projects, Latest idiocy amongst my group of friends are trips to the Maldives, Vietnam and of all things the Galapagos Islands, How much selfishness and irony is involved there? On questioning the lady involved didn't even know which country they belong too! :rolleyes: Holidays now are involved in a race to simply provide vapid dinner table one upmanship. It's the same sun that shines on the med for goodness sakes!
It's not just individuals either. the daughter of a friend who is currently in South America with her boyfriend wants to tie the knot in Fiji for some unknown reason yet both have been forced to fly back to the UK to simply do the paperwork and post the bans before making the 7000 mile trek back again! Madness!

A trip to Burnley would be a trip too far.

Anyhow I don’t like going abroad. Aircraft are full of snotty, coughing oiks who can’t take their beer and they sneeze all over you; and abroad is full of foreigners who talk funny. Don’t get me going on France; it is a s**t home full off folk who don’t wash and only work 4 hours a day for 4 days a week and complain when they don’t get platinum plated pension schemes.

Odd that the young appear less inclined to care for the planet isn't it? More contradicting articles.
This is on he back of a recent report I heard about where somebody with a yacht moored in Monaco sent a private jet to Switzerland to collect a bottle of wine for a dinner party. :mad:

Great letter to the FT and one which I fully agree with and have been warning of for decades. Economic growth is most definitely not the way forward.
