    After a quick glance at the BBC I was delighted to see that Nigella is now free from Ebola.

    When I was a kid and the Solidarity movement in Poland was in full flow I remember being horrified as we drove down to Devon on holiday passing signs for Walsall.

    I didn’t know that the unrest was only an hour’s drive from our house.

    Kind of similar; there’s a town in North Lincolnshire that has a rude word ‘hidden’ in its name, and I can’t see that name written down without the rude word seeming as if it’s in bold type, foot high, red letters, underlined, such is the clarity with which **** appears.

    Presumably you’re referring to what’s known in IT circles as the “Scunthorpe Problem”; ie, false positives in filtering software.

    I had a headache with this fairly recently, with a large amount of our email being spam-blocked by external email filtering software. Transpired that it was objecting to “Specialist” appearing in email signatures as “Cialis” is apparently some sort of Viagra-a-like.

    The top of a packet of Bold states “Dose Less”
    Took me ages wondering why you would advertise that it does less.

    I remember hearing a report on the news when I was a kid about guerilla warfare and getting really scared: I was left thinking that there was no hope for humans if gorillas had taken up arms against us

    The van with Rochdale Scrap on it always makes me think it needs an apostrophe and different spacing.
