The Befouled Weakly News
22 March 2009 Good morning to you all and here’s hoping it’s a grand one. We’ve had a good week – the weather has been gorgeous, work has been tolerable and Ms Playchute continues (as always) to be her charmingly gorgeous self. Isn’t it marvellous how good weather can make everything seem just that little bit better. Spring flowers are out, buds are on the trees and the lambs are happily jousting in the fields. In contrast to the previous weekend, last Sunday’s gloriously sunny morning did, in fact, turn into a gloriously sunny day. So gorgeous, indeed, that I was compelled to enjoy a twenty-five mile bike ride around and about. In fact, the weather has been outstanding most of the week and on Wednesday I was able to enjoy another short bike ride – thirteen miles this time – as I arrived home moderately early and, of course, we now have daylight until about half past six. Not sure that the lambs enjoy being startled by some fat guy wheezing past on a bicycle as they scarper in panic to the shelter and security of their mothers when I ride past but I sure enjoy the spectacle. Indeed, the weather on Friday was so pleasant that Ms Playchute insisted on dragging the lawn mower out of its hibernation and giving the back lawn its first trim of the season. Naturally, I tried to resist this initiative insisting that cutting the grass at this stage only encourages it to grow more abundantly. Much better to wait until late June or early July when the shock of cutting it in the middle of the season causes such trauma that it only needs cutting once or twice more before October. Unfortunately, she wasn’t buying it. You will remember back in February I wrote about the efforts of one Canton in Switzerland to ban the increasingly popular pastime of naked rambling. (You’ll find the Befouled Weakly News article here if you need to refresh your memory). Well, it seems those crazy Swiss are at it again. This time, however, it’s hiking nude across the snow and glaciers which seems to be equally popular. It’s clear that those Swiss just want to walk and hike without the encumbrance of clothes. I was going to include the article here but since I have two others perhaps it’s best if I just provide a link to one of the numerous journals which carried the story, in this case the New York Times. Read it if you dare! “It's freedom. First, freedom in your head; then, freedom of the body." - A SWISS SCHOOLTEACHER, explaining the appeal of hiking nude through the Alps, which is growing in popularity. Our main foreign news this week concerns our favourite diplomat who is doing the diplomatic rounds in Liberia as his tour there comes to a conclusion. He leaves, I believe, any day now, to take up his new post at UN headquarters.
And finally, this was too good to leave out being, as I am, a great fan of sausage.
Doesn't that look tasty? Much love to you all, Greg Men and women are not always speaking the same language.... 1. THINGY (thing-ee) 2. VULNERABLE (vul-ne-ra-bel) 3.

REMOTE CONTROL (ri-moht kon-trohl) Dan was a single guy living at home with his father and working in the family business. Her natural beauty took his breath away. "I may look like just an ordinary man," he said to her, "but in just a few weeks, my father will die, and I'll inherit 100 million dollars." Two men drove to a gas station because they heard about a contest offered by the station to clients who purchase a full tank of gas. When they went inside to pay, the men asked the attendant about the contest. "If you win, you're entitled to free sex," explained the attendant. "How do we enter?" asked the first man. "Well, I'm thinking of a number between 1-10. If you guess right, you win free sex." "OK... I guess 7," said the first man. "Sorry, I was thinking of 8," replied the attendant. "Come back soon and try again." The next week, the two men returned to the same station to get gas. When they went inside to pay, the second man asked the attendant if the contest was still going on. "Sure," replied the attendant. "I'm thinking of a number between 1-10. If you guess right, you win free sex." "2," said the second man. "Sorry, I was thinking of 4," replied the attendant. "Come back soon and try again." As they walked back to the car, the first man said to his friend, "You know, I'm beginning to think this contest is rigged." "No, I'm sure it isn't," said the second man. "My wife won twice last week."
