Hello Possums,
Weedkiller’s Weekly Modern Art Critic has it on good authority that a once in a lifetime investment opportunity in the form of Tracy Emins iconic “My Bed” is coming up for grabs. The work is actually her unmade bed, complete with stained sheets, discarded contraceptives, underwear, empty vodka bottles and pregnancy testing kit. Interested? It could be yours for a mere £1.250,000. Not too sure? Maybe you would like to sleep on it.

The corpse of an eighty year old Pueto Rican woman was posed in her favourite rocking chair, dressed in the wedding dress she wore at her second wedding, then surrounded by flowers.

The wife of U.K.I.P leader, Nigel Farage, has voiced her concerns about her husband’s pub loving lifestyle, saying that he smokes and drinks far too much during his crusading.

Czech police are struggling to identify a man who charged out of a forest on all fours wearing only his socks. A driver, who was forced to brake sharply, said that the man was growling and barking and attempting to bite his tyres, then lifting his leg he urinated on one of the wheels. The man, who is awaiting psychiatric assessment, was not wearing a collar and is not micro chipped. Up to now the police have no leads.

A protest with a difference took place last Saturday, comprising of around 200 naked cyclists riding through Canterbury, their aim was to highlight the dangers facing cyclists on Britain’s increasingly busy roads. Police were however monitoring the situation very closely, as last year’s demo saw some of the more nubile female cyclists raising more than awareness among their male counterparts. Weedkiller’s Raving Reporter, Radley Biggins, watched the procession go by. He said that he had never seen so many cyclists out of gear before, with some very interesting sights, including one or two vintage choppers.

Bye for now, Paul B.
Another cracker Paul, when you read there is so much relates from your weedkiller to the local area, visits to M&S, the arts, not just the dogs barking, taking a tipple or two of the local brews, cycling, cocking legs and so on.
No doubt its only time before Radley Biggins reports in with more news, by the way can you ask him to wear his bicycle clips the next time he’s out.
