When tow doctors and spin doctors work together you get torque. |

Two short stories from the web version of the Falmouth Packet:
Injured man flown to hospital after accident in Falmouth
6:59pm Wednesday 15th May 2013 in News
A MAN has been airlifted to hospital after being injured at an address in Langton Road, Falmouth.
The man was treated at the Langton Road address before being transferred to the air ambulance which had landed on The Beacon.
It is not known how the man came by his injuries.
And...
Air ambulance lands in Falmouth's Old Hill area
7:12pm Wednesday 15th May 2013 in News .
The air ambulance landed in Falmouth’s Old Hill area this afternoon.
It is understood to have landed at The Beacon, at around 5.45pm.
A land ambulance could also be seen parked outside a house nearby.
It is not currently clear why the helicopter was called or whether a patient was transferred to hospital.
More details will be uploaded when available.
Hardly joined-up journalism, is it!

A Grauniad article about Channel 4's redundant racing correspondent ends very curiously:
"And we certainly didn't want a dispute spilling out into the press. At no stage did we ever feel threatened by John but what we did fear was that John's relationship with the press is one where his character attracts attention. We didn't want a public fallout with him."
The first runner to emerge from Godolphin's Moulton Paddocks stable in Newmarket since 22 horses at the yard were found to have been doped with anabolic steroids returned as a winner on Tuesday, when Air Of Glory took a maiden event at Lingfield by three-quarters of a length.
The three-year-old is now trained by Saeed bin Suroor, who also oversees Godolphin Stables in the centre of Newmarket, but was formerly in the care of Mahmood al-Zarooni, who has been banned from the sport for eight years for his central role in the doping scandal.
Frankie Dettori, who returned to race-riding last Friday after a six-month ban for using cocaine, drew another blank from his booked rides on Tuesday and will now hope to break his duck for 2013 at Kempton Park on Wednesday evening. The best Dettori could manage on Tuesday was a second-place finish on Ssafa in a race at Yarmouth.

I pondered the headline from Politics Home today (good news service, awful sixth-form writing) for a good thirty seconds:
Mail Sell Off Looms
Why, i wondered obtusely, would the Royal Mail own even a single loom in the twenty-first century? The headline has now acquired a helpful hyphen. |
