Thomas Kisses Goodbye to Working Life
Thomas, a twenty-two year old gelding from the Household Cavalry is retiring after nineteen years service in the army. Thomas shot to celebrity status when he gave TV presenter Philip Schofield a kiss on camera. Apparently he is quite the flirt, paying lip service to his brothers in arms to show his gratitude for apples, or Polos. He will be greatly missed by his colleagues in the Calvary, but is looking forward to retirement in Berkshire.

Ambulance Jacked!
In French news this week a twenty-nine-year-old man was detained by police after he allegedly “borrowed” and ambulance, complete with sixty-three-year-old patient in the back. According to the report in The Local the man appeared at the hospital demanding that someone help his grandmother, and when he received no response he took the ambulance and tried the fire department instead, where he was detained to await the police. The man has since been detained in a psychiatric institution at the request of his family. It is unclear as to whether his grandmother received any help.
Lady Pen for Your Lady Hands
It actually came to our attention quite a while ago that BIC was releasing a pen just for the feminine lady women gendered people of the world, we chose to ignore it. The said pen comes in pink and purple lady colours, and is crafted to fit the delicate lady hand, and quite possibly (although this is pure speculation on our part as we have never seen, touched or smelt said writing implement) would be far too delicate to write effectively in a larger, hairier more gruff manly hand. So, why are we talking about it now? Well, we found this truly splendid video on Youtube, and have embedded it below for your viewing pleasure. Should the people from BIC like to send us a Lady BIC to review, we would be more than happy to receive it, and review it in glorious Newsnibbles style.
