My fellow ironing boards Last night I was shocked to discover Richard E Grint was a traitor. This is a disgrace, I have never seen him at our soirées with Nigel, Dickie, and Izzy. I demand that Primark Miniscule Antelope Birmingham launch an enquiry. Long live synthetic wool

My fellow baked potatoes Some people are saying that I have the political skills of a dead skunk, and the IQ of a root vegetable. This is a disgrace, I never went to a posh university like Hull and am the product of the street, in it. These rumours must stop. Long live USB-A cables.

Technically the bishop and president are non hereditary princes. Macron is the first French president to have a specific Andorra portrait. It is basically a very easy spot the difference to the one hanging in mairies across France

Although quokkas are Australia's apex predator, not all quokkas are great hunters. This is Derek. Derek has tried to be a hunter, but gets to exited and also confused by celery. This does not matter as all quokkas get a seat in the Hall of Victories for the Feast for Many Quokkas.

People sometimes ask if the quokka is dangerous. The answer is complicated. Because they are highly organised, ruthless, bloodthirsty apex predators SOME people would assume quokkas are dangerous. The reality is you are as likely to fall victim to a quokka as you are to pay taxes. Pie?
