MOST of us have hilariously fallen on an icy pavement, knocking out a few teeth or cracking a pelvis as we went down. Either that or we’ve comically lost our footing on some snow-covered steps and copped for concussion or a hairline skull fracture as we hit the deck. And if we haven’t, we have certainly laughed at the sight of a stranger taking such a daft tumble. Seeing some poor sap going head over heels on a stretch of frozen street is a stone cold guaranteed rib-tickler; it’s one of the best things about the winter season. But taking into account the cost of subsequent medical treatment for casualties, are these accidents now becoming too expensive for the comedy moments they produce? Some medical professionals think so. NHS bean-counters…

1 THE LORRY was invented in 1896 by German engineer Wilhelm Maybach. A passionate advocate of urinating in Lucozade bottles, Maybach soon realised he needed something to throw the bottles out of when he was finished. He decided that a big fuck-off road vehicle would be perfect, and hey presto: the modern lorry was born! 2 THE SMALLEST ever lorry driver was Calvin ‘Tiny Rig’ Phillips. The minuscule trucker piloted an articulated freightliner the size of three toasters next to each other, delivering diminutive goods such as thimbles, sugar cubes and bookie’s pencils. To communicate with other truckers, Phillips spoke into a CB radio unit no bigger than a Liquorice Allsort, and when he needed to urinate he wazzed in a Lucozade bottle the size of a grain of rice.…

RUNNER-UP MAGAZINE OF THE YEAR ~Take a Shit Magazine of the Year Awards JANUARY can be a tough month for all of us. The festive season is long gone, it’s cold and wet outside, and the combination of shelling out for Christmas pressies and eating our bodyweight in Quality Street has played havoc with both our finances and our guts. But spare a thought for one overweight Macclesfield man who has it even tougher than most. For decades, 56-year-old OGDEN ANKLETAG has begun each new year with a brand new resolution aimed at moulding himself into a better human being. But rather than significantly improving his existence, these well-intentioned pledges have all backfired disastrously. “My new year’s resolutions have ruined my life,” sobs the big-hearted and even-bigger-boned bachelor. “All I…

A YORKSHIRE father of 4 was left heartbroken on Christmas morning when he opened his presents to discover that for the first time in 28 years, he had not received any socks. Brian Torbjorn of Purston normally unwraps around 6 pairs of the fabric foot-coverings every December 25th, an event which he has often described as the highlight of his year. But in 2022, all he got was a toolkit and a Playstation 5 with a copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, a combination of gifts which left the 56-year-old gas fitter in tears. He tried to put on a brave face all Christmas Day, but his wife Maxine said he was clearly very upset. “He couldn’t sleep with excitement on Christmas Eve,” she told the Pontefract…

Dear Dr ‘Big Rig’ Welby, WE ALL know how difficult it is for a rich man to pass through the gates of Heaven – more difficult than it is for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, according to the Bible. I’m not a particularly rich man, so I imagine I’ll be okay getting into Heaven, but I’m a lorry driver and I was wondering if it would be possible to get my rig through the gates? My truck is about 8’ 6” to the top of the cab, but that can go up to around 14 foot depending on the height of the container. Would that be clear of the ornamental ironwork over the top of St Peter’s Gate, or does Heaven perhaps have an HGV…

A COMBINATION of global events that are nothing to do with the government has shattered the way we live. A hike in energy prices, a devastating pandemic and Putin’s illegal war in Ukraine have caused the cost of living to soar. The whole world is suffering the same crisis, but fortunately, our government has everything under control. Indeed, it is only the quick thinking and decisive actions taken by Number 10 that has stopped the United Kingdom from being worse off than one or possibly two other countries. Unfortunately the worst is not yet behind us, and despite Rishi’s excellent stewardship, this winter could be one of the hardest we will have lived though. Even the most competent government could do little to protect it citizens from what is to…
