    My team were sat there appalled and astonished, and wondering whether this creature would suddenly stand up and reveal himself as Jeremy Beadle.

    Alas no, he was for real
    Maybe it was Beadle.

    Sorry, RIP Jeremy.

      He was quite a sarcastic little git but I put that down to him coming from the south east of England. Anyway, as time went on he became more reclusive and nocturnal, getting up durning the night, sleeping throughout the day. Never seemed to change his clothes (one playing football and going out on the town in them), the soap and shampoo in the bathroom gathered dust. Then the whole first floor of the house started to smell of him, gradually the smell spread throughout the house. The culmination of this disgusting residence was finding what I can only describe as a giant cornish pasty shaped turd blocking the pan. The smell was out of this world.

      Last i heard he was packaging salads for M&S
      This is not turd, this is M&S turd.

          The image will be with me for the rest of my life, along with the regret at not contacting the people at Guiness book of records
          The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

          But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

            One of the biggest regrets I have is that I was born so long before the digital camera became available.

              No excuse. I have a photo of a turd between 2 slices of bread taken during my University days on an old fashioned camera.

              (I am not proud of this)

                I blame the introduction of loans, before that a kebab would have been the obvious choice

                    I once taught a class and had one student 'Mandy'.

                    She was grotesquely obese, with matted greasy hair, buck teeth and looked as it she had got dressed in the dark.

                    She was probably a bit autistic. Was great with computers, she solved some stuff first go that I couldn't being a supposed expert... but jesus, she used to sit at the back of the class swigging out a pint of milk... when I was talking she would close her eyes, through her wobbly head back and sort of sleep with her mouth wide open.

                    She'd constantly say what ever was on her mind, whether she was bored, etc, no idea of normal human manners.

                    At lunch she came up to me and asked if it could be arranged for her only to have meat as she hated vegetables and couldn't touch anything near them.

                    Mad, mad woman. Good with computers though.
