  • My favourite serial killers

    I wrote this almost a year ago, so my views on Cross have changed. But this may be of interest to fellow true-crime lovers (apologies if not):

    Alongside our native English genius for science, literature and mindless violence, we have produced some of the world’s finest - and most distinctive - serial killers. It may be regrettable, but they’re hugely popular entertainment figures; see the numerous shows on a dedicated Sky channel.

    When I saw this one I had sore misgivings [don't worry, I always keep some cream handy] but I must confess it made me chuckle in parts.

    It's like Hallie Rubenhold's comic whizzed by and made no impact at all.

    Love,

      If you can't laugh at serial killers, what the hell can you laugh at?

        You'd laugh if you saw a pudding run up the wall, according to my late ma-in-law.

          ... Hallie's comet?

            Indeed, Sam. Nothing wrong with your Fisher-Price pun detection kit.

              Hehe!

              I like that!

              I think I WOULD laugh if I saw a pudding run up the wall.

              What a nice saying, Caz!

                Cheers, Ms D. My ma-in-law must have had a saying for every occasion - many of them not fit to print!

                One of the funniest was when she was in her kitchen one day, frying some sausages. She described them as "widows' memories".

                Love,

                  Haha! That's a cracker too.

                  For a moment I read it as "Windows memories" and was confused!

                  Got it now!

                    Nice article, Paul! (Step aside, Society’s Pillar!)

                    Better you than me.
