Shades of the life of Brian!

NZ Herald Copywriters and Proof Readers now an endangered species!

These guys have no sense of humour and a tolerance level set permanently at incandescent.

I must say that Granny's standards of spellinge punctuaton and gramar have dropped to third world levels lately.

Cheers

+ 1 That's what immediately sprang to mind, too ... Life of Allan :lol:

Before reading it, I thought Billy T was referring to yet another monumental blunder by Aunty.

The NZ Herald has run a story by-lined by John Hall about a supposed Vietnam Veteran found after 44 years of being missing in action presumed dead.

Unfortunately for the “decent journalists, trained and skilled” at the NZ Herald, the man is a hoaxer and his story is fake.

Whale Oil sprung the Herald in a piece called "massive-herald-bomb-I-wonder-how-they-will-get-out-of-this-one?"
