I'd wager this one might not be beaten all year.

The link doesn't work for me. Sad
Which article is it?
Nixon courted Sinatra? (I thought they were both straight! Razz )
Or Google not being happy about how much censorship China wants?
(Like they didn't get a clue originally! Confused )

The biggest WTF's for me was the UK running short of gas in reserve during the coldest part of the year. Social Services not responding to reports of an elderly couple who were clearly in difficulties (they were both found dead at home). Running out of grit and salt for the roads!

Isn't it about time this mickey mouse Govt were taken to task for ALL the errors they make!

Whilst rare, that's not completely unheard of. I've heard of the condition before, and didn't get why there was a documentary now when there was anews story last year about the same condition in a boy.

I didn't realise there was going to be a documentary about it. Apparently she bleeds in other places too, odd the medics haven't found an explanation for it tho

I think the medics are putting it down to Munchausen by proxy, because the bleeding has never actually started when there has been anyone else there other from the girl herself or her mother Confused

Quite taken with the widow's statement - 'My Willi is my god. I [have loved] my Willi for 22 years.'

I suggest she buy a dildo.

I think you need to check the competition before you make bold statements like that. Particularly as Oakman beat you to that very story.

It is indeed some of the strangest news this year.
