A RIGHT OLD EXCUSE<br />

An engaged couple says<br />

their wedding plans have been<br />

scuppered by changes to next<br />

year’s early May bank holiday<br />

in the UK, but I just don´t get<br />

the logic of their argument.<br />

May Day is traditionally held<br />

on the first Monday of May but<br />

has been put back to Friday,<br />

May 8th to commemorate the<br />

75th anniversary of VE Day.<br />

But the problem is that Simon<br />

Aherne and Anna Cousins,<br />

from Cardiff, claim that their<br />

guests will not be able to attend<br />

the ceremony on Sunday, May<br />

3rd in Gloucestershire, because<br />

of the “lack of notice”.“Most<br />

of our family are teachers or in<br />

the entertainment business so<br />

the bank holiday worked out<br />

perfectly for us,” Mr Aherne<br />

said. He explained that while<br />

they respected the wish to mark<br />

the VE Day anniversary, as both<br />

their families have a history of<br />

military service, they questioned<br />

the lack of warning. Mr Aherne<br />

added: “We have invited more<br />

than 100 people, but it looks like<br />

we might barely get 20 now.<br />

HUNT´ S THE NAME<br />

Why is it such a problem for UK that you can make the four-letter<br />

broadcasters to properly enunciate Tory slip(because of past mistakes from<br />

leadership candidate, Jeremy Hunt´s other broadcasters), and because of your<br />

surname? There seems to be a stream brain cells processing that concern, you<br />

of such incidents lately, which can only actually do it yourself, or perhaps trip<br />

suggest that their minds may just be on up or hesitate before saying his name.<br />

other things, yet it isn´t just blokes that Or is it a sign of the pressured times<br />

seem to make a right Hunt of it. and everything being available on an<br />

Even the superb Victoria Derbyshire instant recording to be posted on social<br />

made the blunder on her BBC TV show media? I don´t remember slip ups in the<br />

this week and have been in a similar past over James the F1 driver; Gareth<br />

I can understand where this is coming governor. Perhaps Jeremy just ought to<br />

from. Namely, your mind gets obsessed change his name to Hunter!<br />
