If ever you thought your local coppers were docile, here’s a classic case of planning by the plods in Bangladesh…
A court trying suspected Islamic militants was thrown into panic when five live bombs were produced as exhibits during the hearing of a case.
The discovery prompted the presiding judge to order a hasty adjournment as the court was evacuated. A security force officer said that he got the “shock of his life” when he realised that the bombs were live. Officials blame police for not defusing the devices before coming to court. The police say they were not asked to. Because, obviously you’d have to be asked to make explosive devices safe before you carried them into a public place, wouldn’t you? Doh!
BBC story
Jockey Paul O’Neill, who head-butted a horse called City Affair during a meeting at Stratford, has been given a one-day ban by the Horseracing Regulatory Authority. O’Neill lost his cool when City Affair unseated him before a race last month. He got to his feet and grabbed the reins, pulling his horse to him, before nodding the front of his helmet onto the horse’s head.
O’Neill is apparently very sorry and wants to put the whole sh*tty affair behind him after becoming the butt of many jokes. City Affair declined to comment and tried to eat the microphone that was thrust into his face.
Ed Butter, a spokesperson for the International Head-butters Union, said: “After Zinedine Zidane’s moment of madness in the World Cup final, and now this incident, we would like to reiterate that head-butting has no place in the world of modern sports. It should take place on the tarraces at football matches and in Glasgow pubs on a Friday night. Untrained head-butters can injure themselves, although we doubt they’ll suffer brain injuries.”

Now this is either a case of urban guerrilla artwork… or someone’s idea of a joke… or an accidental juxtaposition of two items to create a humourous image.
But whatever the case: “you can’t make a chocolate omelette without breaking a few creme eggs”
Incidentally -this is the Asda store that a guy nearly got larged in the other day - read story. Always nice to hear that your local supermarket is full of knife-wielding thugs…
