Here is the latest from the what-stupid-hacks-write department.

Above the caption "Langley Academy pupils with their boat and rowing
legend Sir Matthew Pinsent at a recent visit." you will see this fine
picture:

The story, at this absurdly long URL
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1229145/Swing-swing--Eton-gives-neighbouring-state-school-pupils-access-lake-inspired-boating-song.html?ITO=1490
is a good one, by the way; just ignore all the nonsense about the Eton
"boating song" and so on. It's not just the Daily Wail that's printed
this kind of drivel, either, which is a little depressing.

Well at least the headline is a change from the ususal 'Row, row, row
your boat'.
