SATAN'S RUBBER DUCK Imagine a Steps song sung in rap... oooh, scary! No, let's not!

SCHIZO NUMBER 3 Maths is evil — 'nuff said, really. Chemistry is good, though — get to blow things up. Yes, I'm not entirely sure you should be blowing things up at all.

 

UNHOLY DARK KNIGHT, WLW AND ALL 'ZINERS

I, too, hail from Kettering, a town with the delights of "Wickies", many townies and a lovely big road running right down the side of it!

At least there are a few good things about it, such as the milkshake parlour where I can satisfy my craving for Jelly Baby milkshakes!

Anyway, I think it's time that all the 'Ziners in the Northamptonshire area had a meeting. How about in Kettering?

Well, I must admit, the

WHAT'S THE POINT?

Monday was a bad day (girls are evil).
Tuesday was worse (aargh, girlfriends).
Wednesday was the 13th, so can you guess how my day was (girlfriends who can't get over their ex and still ignore you)?

FREE GIFTS

Some time ago, I received a free gift with a magazine. Naturally, I was rather happy about it 'cos it was free.

However, I noticed something strange. I had no idea what it was. It didn't look like anything, had no instructions no name and no foreseeable purpose.

To this very day, I am still curious about its use. I can't even ask for a picture of it, 'cos it is too bizarre to describe.

Please help me!

I'M BACK!

Apologies for my recent absence, I have been on a geography field trip. The trip itself only lasted a week but I am still undergoing extensive counselling.

The reasons? Not only did I go without 'Zine for a week, I had to put up with the apalling attempts of 50 girls to sing I Will Survive in an enclosed environment. And I always managed to pick the only deaf person within a mile radius to answer my questionnaire.

By comparison, school is bliss.

SARNIES

Surely the daddy of all palatable sarnies is the prawn and mayo baguette. The delicious, soft white bread, tender prawns that just melt in your mouth, creamy mayo and, to top it off, a delicate seasoning of black pepper.

I was going to send you one in the post, but I'm guessing it may not taste all that nice when it gets to you... and the smell would probably clear your office!

Perhaps a cyber baguette, then?

Dissimulation

I am really REALLY hungry now!

Y'ALL RIGHT, DUCK?

Has anyone actually ever heard anyone from Leicester use the expression "y'all right, duck"?

The only person I have ever heard use this phrase in the whole 15 years I have lived here was a restaurant owner in Menorca who originally lived in Leicester.

Just wondering how it originated? Did people used to talk to ducks?

Too much homework, I think!

Dunno, but relocating from Leicester
