Picked up a copy of Stuart Maconie‘s “Adventures On The High Teas” today in ASDA for a rather oddly-priced £3.86 (Or 2 for £7 but the rest was dreary romantic fiction or stomach-churning grisly murders, both real and fictional. Oh and of course “Tragic Life Stories” such as “It Doesn’t Go In There Daddy”, “When Tickle Fights Go Wrong” and “We Need To Talk About Fingering”…) but was extremely bemused by the additional sticker added to the front cover…of Maconie‘s face.

“Hmm, its alright I suppose but what could we give it to push it just that little bit further?”
“How about a big not especially flattering photograph of Maconie’s face?”
“Brilliant! And put it over the quote too so no-one knows what he’s as wise as!”
“Is it Hitler, sir?”
“We’ll never know, underling. We’ll never know…”

Although for those interested, its actually “as wise as Sara Crowe”. Thanks..
