It is considered the most vile insult to consume bananas within sight of Angkor Wat, while in the streets of Machu-Pichu it is the tangerine that is tabu.

Ye gods, it's good to be back at work!

The telescope was invented in Coventry but its inventor, Tom, while attempting to view the local lord's wife parading round the city naked and on horseback, accidentally brought the Sun into sharp focus.

Elephants are driven into a murderous rage at the sight of a homburg. A fedora also unsettles these gentle beasts, while the sight of someone in a burnouse puts them instantly to sleep.

Giraffes attack when confronted by a bearded face.

Must see television over the next few weeks will be The Farm.

My sister Wendy is a Managing Director of a local firm. Her hobbies include fashion and yoga.

She recently won an national award for her part in writing a humorous programme about roofing support.

The headline in our local paper read "Trendy Bendy MD Wendy Wins Rafter Laughter BAFTA".

Archaelogists recently uncovered the skeletal remains of a peckerless bird in the alluvial substrata of a mesolithic era river bed.
