Well Polly is see your boys got off to a FLYING RED CARD START

Posh and Becks are sitting in front of the television watching the six o'clock news. The main story is a man threatening to jump off the Clifton Suspension Bridge on to the busy road below. Posh turns to Becks and says: "David, I bet you £5,000 that he jumps!" to which Beckham replies "£5,000? Done! I bet that he doesn't." So they shake hands on the bet and continue watching. Sure enough, the man jumps and hits the road below with a loud thud. Beckham takes £5,000 out of his back pocket and hands it to Posh. But she refuses. "I can't take your money, David," she says. "The truth is, he was cheating. I saw the five o'clock news, so I knew he was going to jump." "No, babe, fair's fair" says David. "That money is yours fair and square I was cheating just as you were. I saw the five o'clock news, too. I just didn't think he would do it again." The Manchester United players are in the dressing room on Saturday just before the game, when Roy Keane walks in. "Boss," he says, "there's a problem. I'm not playing unless I get a cortisone injection." "Hey," says Becks. "If he's having a new car, so am I." David Beckham goes shopping, and sees something interesting in the kitchen department of a large department store. "What's that?" he asks. "A Thermos flask," replies the assistant. What does it do?" asks Becks. The assistant tells him it keeps hot things hot and cold things cold. Really impressed, Beckham buys one and takes it along to his next training session. "Here, boys, look at this," Beckham says proudly. "It's a Thermos flask." The lads are impressed. "What does it do?" they ask. "It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold, "says David. "And what have you got in it?" asks Roy Keane. "Two cups of coffee and a Choc ice," replies David. Posh takes her car into a garage to have some dents removed. The mechanic knowing she isn't the brightest Spice Girl in the world, decides to play a joke on her. "You don't need me to take those dents out," he says. "Just blow up the exhaust pipe and the metal will pop back into place". So she takes the car home and tries it. David spots her from the house, opens a window and shouts "You silly cow! You have to wind the windows up first!" David Beckham is celebrating: "57 days, 57 days!" he shouts happily. Posh asks him why he is celebrating. He answers: "Well, I've done this jigsaw in only 57 days." "Is that good?" asks Posh. "You bet," says David. "It says 3 to 5 years on the box." Victoria Beckham and her driver were cruising along a country road one evening when a cow ran in front of the car. The driver tried to avoid it but couldn't -the cow was killed. Posh told her driver to go up to the farmhouse and explain to the owners what happened. About an hour later, the driver staggered back to the car with his clothes in disarray. He was holding a bottle of wine in one hand, a cigar in the other and smiling happily. "What happened?" asked Posh . "Well," the driver replied, "the farmer gave me the wine, his wife gave me the cigar, and their beautiful daughter made mad passionate love to me." "My God, what did you tell them?" asked Posh. The driver replied: "I'm Victoria Beckham's driver, and I just killed the cow."

Hi Polly, Congratulations. Hope you have a good day. "I see my boys did the biz again at Cardiff"

MONITORING FLY LIFE ON OUR RIVERS The Salmon & Trout Association was established in 1903 principally because of concern over the Industrial Revolution’s impact on our rivers and streams and to represent the interests of game fisheries throughout the British Isles. Now in their 100th Year their fight to reverse environmental degradation remains as strong as ever. A recent Fly Life Survey of Southern Chalk Streams, conducted by Allan Frake, of the Environment Agency and Peter Hayes of the Wiltshire Fishery Association, highlighted a serious decline in aquatic fly abundance mainly in the past 20 years. The S & TA is now helping the authors of this initiative to spread the survey across the whole of the U.K. through its regional and club networks. The survey is based on a questionnaire which asks the angler to give their opinion of how fly life has changed on local rivers, using information either from logged observations, such as diaries, or just from personal recollections. This questionnaire will be launched at the CLA Game Fair, Harewood House, on 1st to 3rd August. Copies of the questionnaire can be obtained by telephoning 020 7283 5838 or e-mailing : flylife@salmon-trout.org The S & TA will be consolidating the information from all the questionnaires received and will produce a report by the end of the year. Many local anglers have commented on the changes in fly life on our rivers here in Cumbria / Lake District and this is an opportunity for them to become involved in this important research. The object of the research is to ascertain causes and where possible remedies to this serious decline of fly life on some waters.

Out on the banks Sunday evening 32degC at 4-30pm in deepest Cheshire. 28degC on the way home at 10-30pm.

Following complaints made to the IRB about the All Blacks being allowed to motivate themselves by performing the 'Haka' before their games, other nations were asked to suggest pre-match rituals of their own. The IRB Rugby World Cup 2003 Organising Committee has now agreed to the following pre-match displays: a.. The England team will chat about the weather, wave hankies in the air and attach bells to their ankles before moaning about how they invented the game and gave it to the world, and how it's not fair that everyone still thinks New Zealand are the best team in the world. b.. The Scotland team will chant "You lookin' at me Jimmy?" before smashing an Irn Bru bottle over their opponents' heads. c.. The Ireland team will split into two, with the Southern half performing a Riverdance, while the Northerners march the Traditional route from their dressing room to the pitch, via their opponents dressing room. d.. Unfortunately the Committee were unable to accept the Welsh suggestion following representations from the RSPCA. e.. Argentina will unexpectedly invade a small part of opposition territory, claim it as their own "Las In-Goals-Areas" and then be forcibly removed by the match stewards. f.. Two members of the South African team will claim to be more important than the other 13 whom they will imprison between the posts whilst they claim the rest of the pitch for themselves. g.. The Americans will not attend until almost full time. In future years they will amend the records to show that they were in fact the most important team in the tournament and Hollywood will make a film called 'Saving No.8 Lyle'. h.. Five of the Canadian team will sing La Marseillaise and hold the rest of the team to ransom. i.. The Italian team will arrive in Armani gear, sexually harass the female stewards and then run away. j.. The Spanish will sneak into the other half of the pitch, mow it and then claim that it was all in line with European "grass quotas". They will then curl up under the posts and have a kip until half time, when their appeal for compensation against the UK Government will be heard. k.. The Japanese will attempt to strengthen their team by offering good salaries to the key opposition players and then run around the pitch at high speed in a highly efficient manner before buying the ground (with a subsidy from the UK Government). l.. The French will declare they have new scientific evidence that the opposition are in fact all mad. They will then park lorries across the halfway line, let sheep loose in the opposition half (much to the delight of Wales!) and burn the officials. m.. The Australians will have a barbie before negotiating lucrative singing and TV contracts in the UK. They will then invite all their mates to come and live with them in Shepherds Bush and Earls Court.
