A Prince among men…

man jailed for three years for urinating over dying woman.

Why does the phrase ‘flogged within an inch of his life’ leap unbidden into my mind?

Meanwhile in our more innocent corner of the North, the local headline is: ‘Wayward cow tramples woman’.  This from the paper which brought you the headlines: ‘Seagull flies amok in gift shop’, and my all-time favourite ‘Man faces fish in trousers charge.’

My all-time second favourite understated headline has to be ‘Dundee man drowns at sea’.  The event? The sinking of the Titanic.
