T-Mobile Facebook Flashmob Closes Liverpool Street Station

TO Liverpool Street Station, where the place is being overrun by Facebook dancers. It’s the big social network silent disco, in which people with no friends meet other people with no friends and pretend to be grooving to music in a disco.

The mob are copying an advert by German mobile phone corporation T-Mobile in which 400 actors were filmed dancing at the station on January 15. Next months, the cray-zees will be doing the Shake ‘n’ Vac ad and after that a tribute to Kwik Fit.

This is the alarm clock that wakes you up with the smell and sizzle of cooking bacon.

Of course, it might be mingled with the scent of last night’s kebab, the afterburn of bacardi breezers and regret, but you can always let the bacon burn and lie in.

Baby Ingests Contents Of Used Condom In Hotel

TO the Homewood Suites in Mount Laurel, N.J., wqher a 22-month-old boy is playing with a used condom.

The Wolfe family of Pittsburgh, Mass. are staying in the Burlington County hotel. It is claimed that on the morning of their departure, the child found a used condom in the room. And, no, it was not mum and dad’s.
Mum Amy hears the chewing noise. She grabs it. It curls from the toddler’s mouth. It is empty, drained of its contents.

This being the USA, a lawsuit is filed. It is said that the boys has “ingested the contents”.

The suit says a “life threatening” item was left in the room. The chid was at risk of getting a “sexually transmitted disease, including HIV or AIDS, or some other, potentially life threatening, potentially fatal illness.”

Oh, and both parents and three children, have suffered mental distress.

Good then to make the matter a thing of public record, something the little lad should thank his mum and dad for in his adolescent years…
