Tales From The Tabs

Nonsense
When I was a
kid, I always wanted to be a headline writer for a
tabloid newspaper. Unfortunately, I didn't get enough
points in my Leaving Cert to do tabloid headline
writing, and had to do wine merchantry instead, so
here I am today.
I still like to keep my hand in at the old headline writing, but one of the problems I encounter is that sometimes I think of a headline, but the story to go with it just doesn't materialise. That's never stopped a few tabloid newspapers, I suppose, though.
Anyway, the ones below the fold have been thrashing around my head for a while, so I thought that in best tabloid fashion, I'd make up the stories to go with them.
