Selsey Bill

Stan, Marta, Franc and I went to the seaside today. Marta took a thousand photos but this is the only one where I don’t look like a chip eating fool… Apart from maybe this one which was taken after Stan’s first slide down a slide:

My t-shirt is from The Caboose, an awesome ice cream vendor in sunny West Texas. Ted the dog looked good throughout though was nervous of the sea and the overpoweringly fishy smell.

Sexy nanny masturbates to death!

This story really has it all:

Nichola Paginton, 30, probably died due to her state of sexual excitement, a pathologist confirmed. Miss Paginton’s employer, Mrs Sarah Griffiths, found her lying under her duvet with a laptop on her chest. When she moved it and lifted the duvet, she found the nanny was naked from the waist down and there was a vibrator in her bed. The laptop was still displaying pornographic material.

Miss Paginton, from Cirencester, Gloucestershire, visited her GP in 2008 and 2009 when she was feeling low after the break-up of a relationship. She was described anti-depressants but these had no bearing on her death in October last year. Gloucestershire coroner Alan Crickmore said it was likely ‘her activity before death’ contributed to the fatal heart arrhythmia.

Putin meets spies

Vladimir Putin, the thinking man’s spy turned democratic leader, has met up with the expelled deep undercover spies. Talking about their experiences in the US he said that they:

were living “tough lives” and had been “betrayed”. He told journalists that he had sung Soviet-era patriotic songs with the agents.

Asked if it was karaoke he said:

“We did, but not with a karaoke box. We sang to live music and we sang ‘Where the Motherland Begins’ and other such songs.”

Vladimir went on to say that the spy swap with the US had come about as a result of “betrayal”. Threateningly, he went on to add:

“Traitors always end badly. They finish up as drunks, addicts, on the street.”

And when asked by reporters if Moscow was planning to take revenge, he said it was incorrect to ask about it, adding:

“It cannot be solved at a press conference. They live by their own laws, and all special services are well aware of these laws.”

I bet those ”betrayers” are absolutely shitting themselves now.
