In a bizarre action that amounts to walking to St. James' Park as per usual clad in stripey club shirts as per usual but not buying a programme, the geordies protest against Mike Ashley ...
Action 1 - Sign the petition!

The intention is that the march will set off at 12.30pm, going on to Grainger Street to the monument and then up Northumberland Street, past the Haymarket and on to Percy Street to St James’ Park.
Action 3 - Wear club colours with pride
Action 4 - Boycott the club’s products!
It goes on ...
Action 5. Shout Keegan In Keegan In Haddaway an Shyte Haddaway an Shyte loudly for two 45 minute periods separated by a 15 minute interval.
Action 6. Invite Alan Price to sing the Jarrow Song at half time
Action 7. Go home and don scruffy working class oik togs with flat cap and whippet
Action 8. March to London and trash Lilywhites

Dear Emil,
Posted Sep 14, 2008
With the untimely insolvency of your package holiday group sponsor, our vision is to have our logo CRAP writ large above each player’s number, with our motif "In pursuit of Uranus" appearing just below the waistband of the short. We think that you would be as excited by this prospect as we are.
As such, to this end, we enclose $5/- in contribution to the costs of screen-printing and look forward to next season and seeing through the corporate haze of a box of hospitality our CRAP all over your shirts, and "Proud Sponsors of the CRAP Ammers" spattered all over our corporate
stationery, and our rocket.
We shall hear from you.
Forever blowin' bubbles,
Trout Montague

Scrapheap Challenge
Posted Sep 14, 2008
... during a recent workshop to shortlist astronautical crew a creased and much-loved (easiwipe coated) photograph fell out of my filofax.
"Hmm, Lisa Rogers", says I.
"I bet she does", says Dr Bruce.
"No," says I, "she's off Scrapheap Challenge. AND, she's mates with Kryten" ...

How Do We Sleep When Our Beds Are Burning?

This office has received transcripts documenting why we are not getting solar power installed on all our rooves despite being globally the most susceptible to climate change whilst meanwhile bathing in almost 24-hour coast-to-coast sunshine ...
Wayne: "Do you reckon there a ten million dwellings in Australia?"
Kev: "Yeah, why not."
... tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap ...
Wayne: "And to fit solar, say $20k a pop?"
Kev: "Yep, sounds good.”
... tap tap tap tap tap ...
Kev: "How much?"
Wayne: “ERROR”
Kev: "F*c*i*g Jap 5hyte. I'll just tell Garratt it's too expensive."

Excellent PrimeMinister ...
Posted Aug 6, 2008
I am perplexed that you are reported on the ABC as wanting all of our athletes competing on a level playing field. Of particular concern to me are those whose pursuits exist in an aquatic environment, especially the 10m dive team. I also harbour reservations about the track’s inner field which can be nominally level at best. Curiously though, it is the hockeyroos, for whom I have always had a soft-spot, figuratively, that have the least to worry about.
I shall hear from you.
Yours pictorially,
Montague Trout
