    I take it that for the English exams down South there was some kind of interpretation element where points were awarded. I think I am starting to understand why Churchill was not given a place at university.

    I thought I would set a little test for him, what you have to do Churchill is read the following passage and then answer the question which is multiple choice...

    FOXES are being blamed for digging up ancient bones at a city cemetery.

    Residents living near Rosebank Cemetery, in Pilrig, discovered the gruesome damage while walking there at the weekend.

    The city council said it was aware of the damage, and that its pest control team was monitoring the situation. However it is illegal to kill foxes by poisoning or snares
    Churchill for five points, what was being blamed for digging up graves in Rosebank Cemetery?

    A. The Were-Rabbit
    B. Professor Rabbit, Dean of Archaeology at Edinburgh University
    C. Foxes

    In your own time Churchill...

    A, B or C?

    Hmmmm, looks like a rabbit with a bit of Grecian 2000 to me.
    Perhaps that explains the confusion Churchy and Minestrone are having.
    Killer corpse-and-baby chewing rabbits have have obviously been disguising themselves as foxes, the cunning sods.

    Police later saw a fox at the family's home and took a picture of it.

    Have I got that right?
    It would be a first if you had. You have the deductive powers of a Creme Egg!!
