I read the Sunday Times.
I'll just get my secretary to type out any relevant information, whilst I read it out loud, from the comfort of the chaise longue.

I believe the job is up for grabs, however if you were to apply, one of the restrictions would be not to use your oxygen bottle at the same time as lighting his Cigarette.

You could have renamed it...'Rindi's Indy.' Then you could have moved the editorial offices up to Ossy and began hard-hitting editorials on Hyndburn's political elite and given given it all nationwide coverage....and think of the headlines
