I'm totally enraged about today's story that it's been suggested the . Not because I think it's OK to get plastered and drive home, but as someone who worked behind a bar for six years I've seen a great deal more gentlemen of, shall we say, 'more advanced years' sinking three or four whiskeys in half an hour and waddling out to their jalopy and on to the next pub. But of course that's OK - they've been doing it for years.

Is Al Gore's film really ? Surely we all agree that nuclear apolocalypse flick "Threads" made by the good old ´óÏó´«Ã½ retains this title. With its 80s hair and fashions (and featuring the Sheffield egg-box council building) it gets more and more terrifying as years go by.

Not wanting to sound like a pedant or even a trainspotter, but in the story about the , you appear to have published a picture of a Class 91 and mark 4 coaches (also known as the Inter City 225), complete with electric pantograph (we all know from the noise of a 125 that they are diesel powered), over the caption 'The little train that could' (excuse the quotations!).

Some of those Caption Competition entries were pretty dire.
I have a newfound respect for the Monitor after reading all 237 of them. If it weren't for the teal, I don't think I would have made it.

What shall I do on this fine Friday afternoon? Read all the caption comp entries, 6 down, 237 to go. It's going to be a great afternoon. Good work MM!! We should start a vote on the worst 6 entries now we can see them all.

The woman answering the door in is gorgeous. Who is she?
