       >> You've been framed? <<
       Watch out Blake, Beadle's about

   Blake Fielder-Civil, aka Mr Amy Winehouse,
   currently banged up in Pentonville, is
   telling anyone who'll listen that he's
   innocent and didn't attempt to bribe the
   bloke he assaulted to drop the charges, and
   that it's a fit up. Well, whatever the truth
   of that, one gang does have a plan afoot to
   get some drugs and a hidden camera into
   Pentonville to stitch him up and sell the
   subsequent photos to the tabloids.

Chechnya's Presidential wingnut, Ramzan Kadyrov, has
given an order to limit the amount of celebration
gunfire at weddings. "Two or three shots are enough,
and not from large-calibre machine guns", he says.

       >> Chelsy boots Harry <<
       Prince's lady back on the market

   Despite tabloid reports that Chelsy and Harry
   are back together, that might not be the
   whole story. We're hearing the bubbly blonde
   has her eye on a tall, dark and handsome
   Leeds-dweller.Well, you do need something to
   keep you warm in your first Yorkshire winter.

        Guard caught red-handed

   When Damien Hirst's diamond skull was exhibited
   at White Cube earlier this year, as well as a
   guard on duty 24/7, it had a secret safe hidden
   underneath, into which the fifty million pound
   skull would drop at the end of the day. On one
   occasion, after the gallery had closed, the
   guard turned round and saw the skull had
   vanished! New to the job and unaware of the
   existence of the safe, the guard pressed
   the alarm and called for help. All was well,
   the skull was in its safe, and the guard was
   suitably embarrassed. Although not as
   embarrassed as he was later, when gallery staff
   had checked the cctv to see what had happened,
   and saw that the guard had missed what had
   gone on because he was standing in the corner
   of the room having a crafty wank.

       >> Big Questions <<
       What people are asking this week

   A crew member on a very posh Mediterranean
   yacht tells us he stumbled upon which
   world statesman snogging the yacht captain's
   wife on deck, while his spouse was asleep
   in their cabin?

   Which Cabinet member's son was snapped after
   a university party with a couple of
   Anderton-alikes in bed and several lines on
   the table nearby? The student who took the
   photos still has them.


-----------------------------------------------------
The latest McCann swingers rumour doing the rounds
is that Robert Murat is the King of The Swingers
in Portugal, and is therefore responsible for
snatching Maddie's disappearance.
-----------------------------------------------------


       >> Safety first <<
       Airport security: not all that

   A flight attendant tells us about a recent flight
   out of Johannesburg. The attendants were doing
   the usual cross-checking, pre-flight routine
   when the senior steward realised that upstairs
   on the jumbo no-one was responding.

   Confused, and mildly concerned that something
   bad could have happened, like a flight attendant
   falling ill, or a hijack, he ran up the stairs
   to investigate, but just found a scene of calm.
   "What's going on, and why didn't you answer me?"
   he asked the flight attendant. "Well", she
   answered. "My sister is the flight attendant.
   She wasn't feeling well this morning so we
   thought if I wore her uniform and came along for
   the trip no-one would notice."


-----------------------------------------------------
Sky News have a show next Monday about otters being
killed by people trying to catch crayfish. (They
are being enouraged by TV chefs, apparently).
-----------------------------------------------------


       >> Safari so goody <<
       Jackiey talks her way to the Gambia

   Jade Goody's mum, Jackiey Budden, was on a
   flight to the Gambia recently. The poor chap
   who found himself sitting next to her was
   treated to a six-hour non stop monologue about
   her life, including a 30 minute slot just on
   how she spells her name. There was no movie
   on the plane. Not even headphones.

Detroit band The Romantics are suing Activision over
a version of their song What I Like About You that
appears on the game Guitar Hero Encore: Hits of the 80s.
-----------------------------------------------------


       >> Unfair trade <<
       Farmer tells TV chef to hop it

   Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall isn't the most
   popular man in Dorset. He recently went
   to Axminster farming suppliers Mole
   Avon, picked up a basketload of goods and
   walked to the front of the queue. A
   farmer who had been patiently queuing
   shouted out "Hey! What are you doing? Get
   back!" Hugh replied "Don't you know who
   I am?" When the farmer suggested that he
   didn't much care, Hugh abandoned his basket
   and walked out.

FYI: The main gripe about Hugh in the
village currently is that the scones he sells,
costing one pound each, are not made by him or
on his farm, "but in Bridport".

       Lynne Franks meets Mother Earth

   in Majorca Lynne Franks decided to lie in
   a ditch by the side of a road casually
   menstruating. She was giving something back
   to Mother Earth.

       >> "Gordon - I'm Out!" <<
       Dragon tells MPs to cough up

   When Dragon's Den judge Duncan Bannatyne's
   company took over the Living Well gym in
   Westminster he discovered that MP members
   (including Estelle Morris, Gordon Brown and
   Paul Boateng) were paying a hugely reduced
   rate compared to the 85 pounds per month that
   all the regular members were paying. Bannatyne
   was not impressed, raging "If Mr Brown wants
   to be a member of THIS gym, he can pay the
   same as everyone else".

   Gordon Brown no longer uses that gymnasium,
   but Anne Widdecombe does.


FYI: A fellow gym-goer tells us that Gordon Brown is
"incredibly pale and doughy" and that he's "not at
all keen on flashing" his penis in the changing rooms.
However he's seen it briefly and it was "unmemorable".
