I read something in a French newspaper recently, and it gave me a good laugh. Please you English people tell me if it is true - never mind, if it is not, it deserves to be !
A woman has recently been discharged of the charge of having thrown tomatoes to Tony Blair. Here is what she said for her defense (I translate) :
"I was looking at this man next to to me, he was throwing tomatoes, and he never seemed to hit. I kept thinking that I could do better. So at one point I got annoyed, took his tomato and threw it. It was only when I saw that it had hit Tony Blair just under his ear that I started to think 'Uh-Oh ...'"
