Captain Scotts Diary Print E-mail

Oates and me playing hide and seek!  What fun we did have.  

An Extract from the lost diary of Captain Scott. 

Tuesday 11th

Beginning to wish I’d brought the other duvet.  Snowed all day again Oates is getting restless.  Wednesday 12th Advanced 15 feet today before frostbite set in. 

Really shouldn’t have worn flip-flops.  Made baked Alaska Surprise for dinner – Oates hit me, again. 

Thursday 13th

Thought it best to stay put today, seeing as Oates’s hand dropped off at breakfast.

We’re running low on germaline again.  

Friday 14th

Weather too bad to venture too far.  Stayed in tent and checked supplies. Fear I may have miscalculated the packing.  Only have 3 cuppa soups and a Sara Lee Gateau left. Oates says I brought too many unnecessary items,  but told him we only have essentials. Suggested a game of Twister after tea, but Oates just shook his head and began to cry. 

I don’t know what’s got into him.   

Saturday 15th

Snowed again,  built snowman outside tent in an attempt to cheer Oates up. Used two remaining Cuppa-soup packets for eyes – looked really good. Think it did the trick, Oates took one look and began laughing hysterically – that was five hours ago and his still at it.  Good to keep men’s morale up.

Sunday 16th

Oates finally finished laughing at 5 am, he’s very quiet now.  Going to show him my 45 albums of football cards tonight.  He went about half an hour ago – said he’d be sometime.  Hope he’s back in time for soup.  Suspect he’s gone out to have another look at the my snowman.

Monday 17th 

Oates still not back.  No sign of him outside.  Getting a bit miffed.  Ate half of the Sara Lee Gateau left the other half for Oates.

Tuesday 18th

Ate rest of Gateau for breakfast, then fixed the knitting machine.Think oates took the barbecue and hot water bottles. Bastard.

Suffragettes protest in Village High Street Print E-mail

suffragettes

We have all read reports in the national press about the growing number of women who have joined Emily Pankhurst's fight for female suffrage but until now, thank the good Lord, the women of our district have had better sense than to join such a diabolical campaign.  All that changed yesterday when Kelvedon High Street was besieged by two suffragettes, who between them caused quite a scene.  The two women, Mrs Rose Ganglen and Mrs Alice Possy of Kelvedon, ran down the High Street at 10.30am yesterday screaming "Give us the vote!" and "Rights for women!" while waving placards and handcuffs.  When they were approached by concerned passers by they handcuffed themselves to the nearest objects and stated that they would remain there until their demands were met.  Unfortunately for Mrs Possy, she found out too late that she had inadvertently handcuffed herself to deaf Mr Ted Hanky's horse and cart just before he set off on his deliveries around the district.  There was much laughter as the local residents watched as Mrs Possy was dragged kicking and screaming behind the cart while still holding her placard.  She was finally released three hours later in Chelmsford when Mr Hanky stopped to investigate why his cart wheel wasn't turning properly.  The muddy and bloodied Mrs Possy then limped back to Kelvedon where she and her fellow protester were made to promise not to demand the vote again.

The execution of Charles Print E-mail

Hundreds of people took to the streets today to see His Majesty King Charles make his first public appearance for months.

His Royal Highness looked calm and at ease as he made his way through the crowd, stopping to receive lucky abuse from some of his subjects, who also showered him with spit and refuse.

The King looked a little apprehensive as he mounted the podium to address the crowd, which remained silent throughout his speech, which is reproduced in full here.

"You utter bastards"

The crowd responded with a loud cheer, which the King gracefully acknowledged before placing his head on the block.

Mr James Gutspy, winner of our 'Be the Kings Executioner' competition, skillfully lopped off the head before holding it up and posing for portraits.

See details of how you could win the Kings head in our stunning new competition on page 4.

 Organisers hinder Marchers March.

Organisers afraid that a march by the SOKG (save our king group), would distrupt Charles execution instructed soldiers to fire at anyone looking suspicious.  After the twentith casuality, the instructions were re-phrased to anyone that looked like a marcher.  After the nineth casuality, the soldiers were asked to wait until the march had actually begun before firing their weapons. 

A spokesmand for the PR company 'Let-em-Rot' who were promoting the event offered this statement:

'The Marchers represent only a minority of the population.  We feel that the majority will have a lovely family day out ruined by these do gooders.  Therefore, we have decided to take an aggressive policy in upholding the liberty of the majority'.

As the charity five a side got underway, sparkes flew as marchers and the crowd met in a frenzy of harsh words and horse manure.  Four marchers were stoned and seven were arrested for possession of illegal substances.

An eye witness to the march stated:

"Bloody hippies, what do they hope to accomplish? They're spoiling the kids fun."

Even with the march the execution went according to plan and a lovely day was had by all.  Albert Spital from London stated " I haven't had this much fun since Guy Fawkes was hanged, drawn and quartered.  Now that was a bloody good street party!"

Deaths:

I am deeply saddened to report the tragic death of one of our oldest members, Mistress Phlemshite.

As many of you know, she was a fully dedicated member of the society, who would always find the time out of her busy schedule to kill and maim for the cause.  It may be remembered that at last years AGM she stood up and urged us all to set light to suspects anytime, anyplace and anywhere, which received thunderous applause. 

Unfortunately, this dedication led to her premature end, since she took her motto a little too literally, and with retrospect setting light to Mistress Licehead with a flamethrower in a toilet cubical must be seen as a mistake.

She will be sadly missed.

 
 
Five burn a witch! Print E-mail
five burn a witch

"I don't want to hear that you've been near that old woman's house again, do you hear me!" snapped Dicks father on Tuesday evening.  Dick had no time to argue, his father had him hanging up by his feet and his mouth stuffed with straw before he had time to argue.

The next morning Dick related what had happened to his chums.

"But that woman is a witch", insisted George, "we've all seen her talking to her cat".

"Yes and what about that time we saw her playing chess with that frog!!" said Anne excitedly.

They all nodded in agreement.  There was no doubt that the old woman had been talking to dumb animals, and that could mean only one thing - she was evil; scum of the earth; she would have to be destroyed; brutally murdered in the traditional manner.
