The Public Go Dada Gaga
Even the local London breakfast newsreader found it hard to keep a bemused grin from creeping across his face today. Quite possibly one of the most bizarre chain of Dada news worthies ever seen on the tragic lantern.
THE PUBLIC GO GAGA-DADA
A herd of Shetland Ponies escaped onto the M4 during early morning rush hour. Police had to close a section of the motorway in order to round them up and to get them back into their field. Later on it was reported that the police wanted to thank some 30-odd motorists who got out of their cars to help with the precision operation.
The “Sultan’s Elephant” * , a 42 ton mechanical elephant, higher than Admiralty Arch, will be parading its lumbering way through London all day. If you want to know details of its route, it’s on the local traffic website.
6 masked men forced their ways into Queens Park Rangers FC Loftus Road ground offices and held one of the directors at his desk. They then forced him at gunpoint to sign a letter of resignation.
Apparently there have been a few financial admin probs at the club, just of late.
(Sledgehammers and walnuts spring to mind here)

PS It was then over to a new face at the weather centre for the forecast – apparently the hottest day of the year so far in central London @ a scorching 25 degrees C. prediction.
Oh and the new weatherman’s name?
One Thomas Shabanacker.
We seem to be entering a new Dada golden era.
