Dining in Dangerous Company



Sarkosy comes out of a meeting with the Russian President looking a little the worse for wear and appears to veer dangerously between hilarity and terror. The last European to have met with Ex-KGB officers in London met a horrible painful death by irradiated nuclear poison. The moral of the tale is, hold a knife to your throat before swallowing anything offered to you by a Russian in Government. I felt almost sorry for him, watching it. He claims not to be a drinker. From the looks of it, it seems true, because possibly having had just a little, he almost comes unstuck. Handles himself well, I think.

UPDATE: The official response was that the President of France was out of breath, having rushed to the Press Conference knowing he was running late from his lunch. The truth is too anodyne sometimes.

Middlesborough Police's Finest Stand Around As A Burglary Takes Place Behind Them

Superintendent Steve Swales, a local police commander, said: "Middlesbrough has made great strides in terms of our professionalism and the service we provide to our community."

Yes, we can just see those strides in action.

Middlesborough Police are making an appeal for the return of their 'Image of Professionalism', last seen stolen in a cardboard box by students running down the road. Any (reliable) witnesses in the area at the time?

And so Sean Morey has composed a little ditty to make sure we know just who's boss round here. Thanks Sean. It's so nice to know you're not alone... My wife is sitting opposite me laughing like she's been found out...

Very Professional Pilots In A Crisis

No embedding on this clip of an engine on a plane failing on take-off. Could have gone horribly wrong, even fatally, apparently. This happened just two weeks ago. Follow the link.

I wonder if my fascination is a bit morbid but I love clips like this.
