THE DAFT THINGS PEOPLE DO ...
----------------------------------
This article is split into two different sections, please don't confuse
one with the other as they are totally different in their "message" to
the reader. The first part is about the daft things that people do, while
the second part is about the more distressing things people do in life.
--------
A man in a Reliant Robin three-wheeler led SIX police cars on a 80 mph
chase around Derbyshire in the Midlands. The Reliant Robin damaged one
police car after ramming into it's side during the chase. Several other
cars had to swerve as the Reliant Robin sped through country lanes. The
car was not stopped until it turned it a dead-end road.
========
SIX police cars chasing a RELIANT ROBIN !!! HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAARRRR ! I
wish I'd seen that ! How embarrassing for the police ! Chasing a Reliant
Robin ! I didn't know Reliant Robin's could go that fast - let's face it
..... who'd want to do 80 mph in a three-wheeler ? Ooo...
--------
Thames Valley officers were ordered to find the elderly owner of
(another) Reliant Robin as he travelled along the M4 doing less than
25mph. Police said "We're not sure where he went but it's possible that
he turned off to Reading and disappeared amongst the traffic." The
driver caused a huge jam on the West-bound carriage-way of the M4 near
Reading.
========
Ah, the police... They can't even stop someone doing 25mph in a 70mph
zone.
--------
The Ministry of Defence is spending millions on bringing in 300 new
staff - to find ways of sacking colleagues.
========
Don't you just love our Government ? Worra bunch of plokers.

A Canadian doctor claims to be the first person in North America to
offer an operation which can increase the size of a penis by 50 %.
Robert Stubbs told the Toronto STar news-paper that he is the only
certified plastic surgeon in North America to learn the technique from
it's pioneer in China, whom he identified as Mr Long Daochuo (Hur hur!)
... Dr. Stubbs said: "All men are not created equal. Women, given the
choice, would usually choose something larger." (Hur hur hur !) ..
The two-hour operation costs about 1,500 quid and involves making an
incision about three inches wide, the paper reported.
========
Ooooooooo no..... never.... Three inches wide ? Nobody, but NOBODY
is cutting anything from my bits ! And anyway, if it was extended by
50 % I'd start knocking people over ! Ahem......

THE SAD THINGS THAT PEOPLE DO...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And now for the things that people do in life that just aren't worth
it. It's terrible when people risk their own lives just for a quantity
of money. This section isn't funny and I hope that people can learn
something from it.
A drug smuggler is dying in hospital after a condom packed with 4000
pounds worth of cocaine burst inside his stomach. Another 49 condoms
containing cocaine were removed by surgeons. The 200,000 pounds (GBP)
worth of drugs were found in the stomach of a man who arrived at Gatwick
Airport from Lagos, Nigeria. Mr David Chesters, Customs' assistant
collector for London Airports said: "This man is very seriously ill and
will probably have a most horrible death. He is in intensive care. If
he lives he could have severe brain damage."
These couriers are commonly known as "stuffers" or "swallowers" as
this is how the drug hides in their bodies. The "mules", as they are
known, can carry more drugs in one trip than usual smuggling methods can
and detection is more difficult. Many are poor people who are attreacted
to a glamour trip to England. Mules can earn up to 500 quid plus bonuses
as the Customs checks at Heathrow and Gatwick are so thorough.
End !
