Birdsong - on the radio

In typical British manner the oddest radio channel has to be this . It is a continous stream of birdsong sung by UK birds. Half a million people listen to it every day. But with no adverts it is not likely to stay online for long. Who says British eccentricity is dead?

Hedgehog I.C.B.M

This is a horrible story and I can only assume the launcher of the weapon wore gloves. Apart from the fact the hedgehog was reported found dead no one seems very worried about it's demise after being used as an I.C.B.M.

A cheque for ten million quid..

Will do very nicely to pay the bill for this fiasco Al Fayed. Modesty forbids me from going into any further details but I am sure you will understand that the British taxpayer does not feel able to foot the bill.
