MR MOPPLE IS UPSET BY A BEE Raspberry flavour yogurt will not make you go back in time, contrary to popular belief. But it does taste good. Can't hear you - am in 1942.

ME AND MY INSANIA Leather trousers shall haunt all my dreams! Squeak.

 

...AND ON THE SECOND PAGE

GODEATSBANANAS My sister is under the impression that she's a potato. This is worrying, as the only reason potatoes exist is to be eaten. What a spud.

DEONBLASTER Ambiguous Snail, can I be the lead guitarist in the 'Zine band? I have a guitar and I can play it. Surely a bonus? If you must.

MECHANIC MONKEY Dear Ambiguous Snail, I would most happily play the triangle in your band. Am I in? We're growing!

He's very modest about it, but...

ANTLERS AT APU

The One With The Mighty Antlers, I have a question for you.

Is the APU you speak of short for Anglia Polytechnic University? Because if it is, as I mightily suspect, then that means that you live in the vicinity of, or indeed directly in, my home town!

Please inform me I'm not alone in this town of chavs. Methinks I may be as good at being a super-sleuth as Aphra... probably not.

Ambiguous Snail

Which means your home town is...

THESPIANS

I got a part in a production of Treasure Island playing Long John Silver.

I start next week 'cause I'm in hospital tomorrow having my leg off.

SOME NICE CRUMPETS

I bought some crumpets today to give me all the bread-like goodness one needs each day.

Anyway I took them home ready to slide them into the toaster when it dawned upon me they wouldn't fit. I managed to squeeze them in anyway, but of course the sides got burnt.

I could get a new toaster to fit the crumpets but several pounds isn't worth the fifty pence worth of bread. Karma may be at work here.

You need to invent a crumpet trimmer

PRIDE AND NINJAS

Last week, while getting the bus back from Glasgow, an old woman sat beside me. I turned to my friends behind me to talk about Pride And Prejudice, saying how it wouldn't be so bad if there were more ninjas, guns, swords and blood in it.

Upon hearing this, the old woman gets up and moves seat. The cheek of some people!

If she'd talked to me about the weather or what she was having for dinner, I wouldn't have moved.

One Winged Angel

Maybe the reason she moved was

THERE WAS CHEWING GUM ON HER SEAT

 

ELEPHANTS

Upon my return from Namibia, investigating the curious disappearance of the majority of their elephants, I have concluded the following:

  • They have gone on holiday to Tuskany.
  • The elephants still in Namibia couldn't go as they wouldn't fit on the plane.
  • The elephants on holiday cannot visit nudist beaches, as they cannot remove their trunks.

I'll phone up and ask them
