According to yesterday's paper, everyone in thailand eats their weight in insects every single day, so some insects are now endangered species in the land of the rising ooooOOON. Well, I think that's what it said.

And according to Family Fortunes on Saturday, everyone swallows 6 spiders a night. The contestant who relayed this disturbing fact said that she was so worried about this that she taped up her mouth every night before going to sleep. Pity she couldn't have kept the tape on for the recording of the programme. I actually only watched Family Fortunes to see whether it could meet the entertainment value of last weeks show. Alas and alack, 'twasn't to be.

From last week's show....... Les: Name something you's associate with the sea. Thicko 1: A coffin Les: Eh????? Do you mean burial at sea? Thicko 1: No, I meant the letter C (Audience guffaws)

Les: Name a type of TV programme Thicko 2: Brookside Les: Eh??? What kind of programme is that? Thicko 2: Duuh, a documentary (Audience are stunned into silence; Les cracks open a bottle of gin) Family no. 1 went home with £72 between them. Hardly worth the humiliation. Talking of humiliation, Friday night was good, wasn't it Glasgow people?? I must wholeheartedly apologise for my behaviour. My drunken nature was solely down to the Pitcher and Piano only serving doubles unless specifically asked for a single measure. I didn't know this until it was too late. When can we do it again??? Lots of love Sheeny xx PS Next time, I insist you remove any fags that make their way to my mouth. It's not big and it's certainly not clever. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
