| Phoney dog poop causes park closure A London park was yesterday closed down temporarily thanks to a phoney dog poo. Police were alerted to the presence of a five foot high pile of what appeared to be dogs mess in the centre of Hyde Park. Police warned the public that a dog as tall as 15 feet may be loose in the park and should be approached with extreme caution. A full scale search was carried out for the giant dog and the excrement was examined by top British scientists. After several hours it was determined that the crap was in fact made of a mixture of gelatine and plastic which contained colourings to create the impression that it was an enormous dogs egg. The somewhat embarrassed Police force apologised to the public for any undue panic the alert may have caused and pedestrians were allowed back on to the park grounds. London based firm "Doggy Loos" who manufacture dog mess bins for London's parks had already begun working on designs for an "Enormo Dog Loo" but plans were aborted when news of the hoax was relayed to company bosses. |

| Paul Daniels accepts 2 year Pizza Hut contract Popular children�s magician Paul Daniels yesterday confirmed he would extend his Pizza Hut contract for a further two years. The pint sized performer is set to earn a total of 3.5 million over the two year period for turning round pizza bases rectangular using a special magic spell. Pizza Hut use the bases in the recipe for their heavily advertised �Sicilian� which has so far proved popular among consumers. Mr. Daniel�s has said of the lucrative contract, � It�s fairly easy really. I just pop into the warehouse once a week and cast a spell over 10,000 pizza bases or so, turning them from round to rectangular. I then integrate a secret combination of basil, garlic and olive oil into the dough also using my supernatural powers.� The contract will greatly increase the miniature magicians vast personal fortune considering he already brings in a reputed 2 million a year from his contract with confectionery firm Nestle for the production of savoury snack �Twiglets�. �Now the Twiglets deal was a real touch� Mr. Daniels is quoted as saying. �All I have to do is pour a couple of mugs of Bovril over the soil above my Old Mother Shipton�s Cave in Knaresborough. Over time the meaty drink seeps through and in much the same fashion as Stalactites the tasty snack is created� When questioned whether sourcery was involved in the lengthy process the cunning conjurer tipped his hat, smiled and quipped �Now that�s magic!� |
