Smalltown resident Bill Bundy has contacted SomersetClive reporter Steve Gull this morning to ask the question which is on everyone’s lips today.
Steve told us “I was making my way into the office today, walking my usual route which takes me past the houses in Eve Street, when a door opened and Mr Bundy appeared i”on the pavement in front of me. He looked rather dishevelled and was wearing his dressing gown and slippers. When he saw me he hissed “Psssst” at me and beckoned me towards him.
I was apprehensive at first, because I don’t normally see anyone when I’m on my way to work, and I was unsure of his intentions, but I did as he requested. He then asked me The Question.”
“Are we allowed to have a sense of humour again?”
Steve continued “I told him that I thought it was perhaps a little early, because it was only 6.30am and I believe Great Britain isn’t due to recover its sense of humour until 8.00am this morning”
Mr Bundy replied to say that he “believed the country was due to regain its sense of humour at 8pm last night”, but went on to say that “the media is still using words such as ‘sombre’, ‘solemn’ and ‘grief-stricken’ as well as showing endless footage and analysis of yesterday’s events.”
“I was able to reassure Mr Bundy that as soon as I have a definitive answer I will contact him and let him know.”
If any of our readers know when the Great British public are allowed to use their sense of humour again, please let us know. In the meantime, until the ‘All Clear’ is sounded we must all remain on Red Alert as there is still a significant risk from stray humorous thoughts.
