Divorce
Today the following appeared in the Argus (our local Brighton newspaper)
'Drivers saw the start of the drama last week when a banner was hung over a bridge over the A27 in Brighton bearing the initials JBS and the words: "Wendy, I want a divorce".
Now it seems Wendy has taken her revenge.
A new banner went up yesterday saying: "No way - you are the cheat! Wendy".'
This was only the only hard "news" (57 words) in an article of nearly 800 words. Still, at least they had the photos and, as Gregor has buggered off to Scotland and left me without a squash partner for a fortnight, I wouldn't have seen the response otherwise. I remember seeing the "JBS" in small letters at the bottom of the first banner. Will the Argus investigate? I don't think so.
I just caught myself about to change the "over a bridge over the A27" to "on a bridge over the A27" but then realised it was a quote.

...hung over the (side of) the bridge, so that people driving under the bridge could read it.
Truly the art of letter writing has been lost.
