image for Talk of Library Closure Hushed up
SsSSSSSSSSSShhhhhhhhuuuuuuusssssssssssshhh

A councillor in Epping was told to hush when the thought of shutting the local library was raised at a council meeting.

Mr Entitlement from the Council takes up the story. 'There I was, minding my own business, moving onto the next item on the agenda, which was about closing the library, when everyone said Shhhhuuuuussshhhhh. It was like they had planned it altogether. What next, if we propose shutting down the banks, will people get out guns and say this is a Stick up?'

Ms Blabbermouth from the Council said: 'We planned it as a joke, like, but Mr, sorry, Councillor Entitlement has never seen the funny side. He doesn't even laugh at the jokes in My Family. Is this the type of man we want representing our interests in Parliament?'

In a similar breaking story, a group of Teenagers, who were browsing books for believable facts, ie, not those found on the Internet where told to shush by a woman in slacks and owlish glasses. She did not even work there.

Make Ben Macnair's day - give this story five thumbs-up (there's no need to register, the thumbs are just down there!)

The story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
