Letter - Local Radio Ga Ga

I SEE that we now are going to be treated to some ‘community’ radio. You’ve got to laugh, haven’t you.
With all the paedophiles around, we don’t need community radio. We need more bobbies on the beat.

It Just Isn't Fayre

THE local church’s recent fundraiser was a big disappointment after a spelling mistake led to a small turnout.
Christian, Terry Dailly, 45, explained: “It was the annual church fayre, unfortunately, whoever did the signs spelt it ‘fair’.”
Organisers were shocked to see the sign outside the church hall when they arrived, but shock gave way to desperation as it became clear that visitors were staying away in droves.
Margaret Horslick, the sultry chief fundraiser, 55 said: “When we saw the sign, we knew it would be trouble. I mean everyone knows that a fair is nothing to boast about. We’ve been having a fayre for years and it’s always been a great success. You know what they say: ‘If it ain’t broke’.”
The church plans on having a church fayre in two weeks’ time to make up for the disaster.
“We’re going to call it Ye Olde Churche Fayre,” said Margaret. “We don’t want to leave anything to chance.”
