Busty buck-toothed singer charms folk festival audience (Rousse)
KT left her seat and took to the stage. Then the rest of the choir pushed out through the door to the right of me, poured down the main aisle and climbed the steps to line up behind the star … Continue reading
A good deed turned bad (Rousse)
I stepped out of my seat to help the old lady left standing in the middle of the bus. My intention was to prop her up. Instead I accidentally pushed her over. All the contents of her shopping trolley went … Continue reading

A bigamist and a boy (Rousse)
