 Hello and welcome to this your 1st 2006 rendition of
Hearsay. The column that promises to be even more explosive than an oil depot in
Hemel! And somewhat cheesier than the final episode of the x crapter- and No I
didn't misspell it! Nice boy, Shane about the song - Oh please somebody stop me.
Now moving swiftly on.Well this is it another New Year's Eve survived. And now upwards and onwards into the unknown we go boldly to face the dawning of new and uncharted chapters of deep winter. Blimey, I don't half come out with some nonsense. So how are you all after your debauched partaking of overindulgence? I hope your (collectively) digestive organs have now fully recovered? Yes here we are (the Queen's we) into a new and exciting year. Where the town's folk of Sheringham were already, before the holidays, as busy as Santa's elves on overtime trying to locate, secure and collect every X-box on e-bay before the "big fly". I refer of course, to all the wondrous efforts our Town's young munchkins realised at their old folks tea party, and a panto up at the High school amongst other things to name but a few. And like all good schools there was plenty of wind of the rhythmical kind that entertained the masses. Well what a New Year this one promises to be? Police protection for bin men, just in case somebody throws a paddy in the street. (Not literally you understand). Space scientists think that they have finally found their missing beadle. (Not sure if that's a pooch from the royal household or a certain Jeremy) but what ever it is, apparently it's on Mars! The American bible bashing mid west find itself with the predicament of having to explain to it's kids the truth according to many about where in fact that they actually originated from, as contrary to public common belief it was not actually a Macdonald's burger bar! I was also delighted to learn that just before Christmas the Yarmouth cashier shop worker who was sacked for having 3 quid in her pocket was reinstated in her job. Bet your life it was on the tills! Or maybe not, come to think of it who cares anyway? Now then where was I? Oh yes we have had the opening of Sheringham Plus in the town, which from what I can make out is where you go if you want to get the local info. about what's happening in the town. How things have changed in my day we called that gossip. Of course it can now answer all those burning nagging questions you've always had a yearning about like what exactly is the news on the hall of the Odd fellows? - Well as my old ma used to say there's bin a plenty a them about this here town ova tha years. And finally but by no means least there's been this new Tesco Questionnaire flying about. This promises to decide what it is we actually do want with the Raging store wars theme. Question is will it enlighten us once and for all? Appraised by some, yet condemned by others? This contentious issue rages ever onwards. Possibly just possibly this has the potential to finally lay the dust between fighting factions. Will it have the potential to become as popular as the new King Kong film or become as hocus-pocus as Harry Potter? Who can tell? But me thunked to my self it's actually about time. I do hope its not just completed and returned by the second homeowner fraternity of the parish. After all, we as a community all have a say and should be heard. We all have the right to state where we'd like to shop and in what kind of shop. After all there's only so many eateries a town can stand. At least that's one avenue of goods and service Tesco's couldn't compete on choice in. "Oh yes it will, Oh no it won't!" Never mind that was just me still enjoying the exploits of Aladdin and his motley Crew down at the theatre. I hope you all went to boo and hiss. I must just say I do stress the words Boo and Hiss as a slightly deaf elderly relative of mine who shall remain nameless, thought I said otherwise! Could have been embarrassing if they took me literally but luckily one of the countless 100 best something or others came onto the telly at that moment and we were relieved to be side tracked. If you get my drift? So there you have it that brings us to the close of this the first edition of the year. I do hope you enjoyed the read. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the editor Mel for her generous editorial liberalism over the years. There has been very little "lost gems" as it were but she knows more than I what might be construed as a suing offence. Your staff at the office work jolly hard to get this published and I thank them again for their efforts and their generosity in the freedom of speech allowed to me, whilst we still have it! A very happy New Year to you all till next time, take care, Vic.
