Blimey! They'll be demanding Richard III's bones get dug up and reburied in York next! Phil
(April fool: nobody would be crass enough to want to move Richard's remains …  ) |

Aside from the basic April fool, I love the line about "driest place in the UK". isn't that a bit like the driest part of Seattle? |

Nicely done April Fool's piece. I agree, the "driest place" line was inspired. |

Maybe they might re-build the one that used to stand in O'Connell Street in Dublin until it was 'removed' in 1966. |

I thought they found Richard the 3rd's bones in a parking lot and have been studying them ever since. Did they actually get around to burying him? |

Oh yes, link And not being Yorkists, the  s thought they would be more Yorkist than Yorkisk by selling tickets. There's nowt as queer as folk. |

No, it wasn`t a state funeral, and some thought that poor ol` Dicky got the hump over it …but still, it was a reasonably tasteful affair in Leicester and some family members were present… Just to give you an idea, and start you off on youtube (I think there`s more to find there) YouTube link & YouTube link |
