Clerical error

Greg L suggests that, when Irish Catholic Bishops agreed new guidelines to establish the idea of compelling priests accused of sex abuse to stand down from ministry, they could have done without this rather unhelpful newspaper headline.


Hmm. I'm sure they did.

Where there's a Will

'Hi Will. It's Amy.
Listen, I'm not feeling too good today so do you think you could finish off the press release for the Air Ambulance news section, please?
You'll find the copy in that email I sent them.
Thanks a lot.
Probs see you tomoz.'


You meant well, Will, but try engaging brain before posting next time.

Oh, and Amy, not to put too fine a point on it, it's 'to', as in 'to which paper I send it'.

Not 'which paper I send it too' which means 'which paper I send it also'. Which is rubbish.

Probably just how you're feeling right now.

Hope you recover soon.

Ooh er, missus

No. Surely not.

Jon C must have thought he'd walked on to the set of a Carry On film when he spotted this car repair shop in Redwood City, CA.


Yes, you read it correctly. And, as way of proof of its existence, here's the web site which innocently carries no hint of irony.

Now, I appreciate and understand the need for garages to appeal to female car owners, but do Americans not get this? Is sniggering at the name just a UK thing?

Providing the clearest opportunity for double entendres that I've seen for a long time.

Giving thanks

There's no need to give thanks this year because Thank itself is doing the giving.


Or maybe Thank owns a giving.

Either way, we're being warned in plenty of time.

Those dates correspond to Thanksgiving 2016.
