Grimsby magistrates pretended they had not heard a thing, and in a seemingly unrelated incident a few minutes later, all the lights went out for a few seconds before flickering back on again.
Imagine the headline
"Bloke farts, no-one cares"

He explained, “One thing that really divides Norway is bark.”
One thing that does not divide Norway, apparently, is its love of discussing Norwegian wood. Nearly a million people, or 20 percent of the population, tuned in at some point to the program, which was shown on the state broadcaster, NRK.

I'm an honoury Grimbarian.
Married a lass from Great Grimsby.
Apart from the overbearing smell of breadcrumbs as you enter the place on the A180 by the Young's factory it's not as bad as people make out.
Dirt cheap property too!

GRIMsby is an awful, awful place but their news website links to our local rag so stories pop up. I had to work there once, never again..........

I am from the Midlands, but without the nasty accent. This means I am not a southern stuck up gaylord nor a wife beating northern miner. We are just perfect.
