Spys like us


Hmmm, now doesn't this bit of news strike you as a tad obvious.

After all, a suspicious death of a MI6 worker, bundled into a padlocked holdall.  It could be an 'open and shut' case, but sadly no.  

The British police have already come to the conclusion, as well as dwindling manpower, that it's not worth going down that route as spy's don't want to be found. 

It's like when all of the loos were stolen from Scotland yard - Police admitted they had nothing to go on!!


Well well, a puddy tat has now been employed to eradicate the rat infestation that Downing Street has now found itself in.

Hmmmm, we could say that the cat had better start with some of the politicians who frequent the place. 

And let's hope that the cat doesn't rat on the Prime Minister with the autobiographical book (already commissioned by Fat Cat Publishers) entitled 'Rats - I'm the Verminator!".

  1. Reportedly, the modern toilet was invented by someone with the last name of "crapper". Is this true, I don't know.... But it makes for a pretty crappy surname, if you ask me.
