A note from the editor 5

posted: 2000-01-08
Now that the millennium celebrations are now just a vague alcoholic memory to most people and everything has now quietened down in the resort everyone is asking how Iím going to better my last issue. Described by some as ìMy best issue yetî (So what if I am vain!) it is almost expected that this issue will be pants compared to the last. Just as my critics were getting their red marking pens ready for a heavy session of underlining Annie (SDS) managed to disable my laptop by liberally sprinkling beer over the keyboard. Well after a week off because of ìtechnical difficultiesî my topic of discussion this week is related to the three types of people who read this paper.
The first say that they donít want to appear in it and that they will firebomb my car if they do. Inevitably they will sooner or later appear (Haven't you heard of fire and theft insurance FRED (Inghams)!). The second say that they donít mine being in it although they complain when they are included just so no one things that they are hungry for fame and then there are the third group, the ìI want to be in it but I want to be able to show the story to my boyfriend/motherî (delete as applicable) . They donít understand that this is a GOSSIP paper and contains GOSSIP ANNIE (SDS)!. If they want to appear in a news story then they should write to the Times.
Well nobody yet managed to get all 5 questions right in the Day in Quiz, what was I expecting from chalet staff anyway! (only kidding) The Dahu staff and LíEquipeís Jo and Philly got closest but only managed 4 out of 5 of the 12 letter words. Iím sure after reading the answers they will all say that you knew them all along. So this week is a rollover and so there are 52 bottles of beer available. But the questions are a little harder. Nothing like working for your alcoholÖ..
