MAN CROSSED RIVER TO AVOID ‘BANK CHARGES’

CANADA: A Canadian rescued from a rubber raft in near-zero conditions told rescuers he was paddling to the US to avoid bank charges.
Wayne Kingwell, 40, ended up spending five hours on the Niagara River before he was rescued, reports Buffalo News.
US Attorney Terrance P Flynn said investigators were trying to determine the validity of the bizarre explanation he gave.
He claimed he regularly crosses from his home in Fort Erie, Ontario, to Buffalo - using a small aluminum boat or the raft - to do his banking.
"He said he was coming across the river to pay off the balance of his credit card," Flynn said.
Kingwell claimed he was charged an $85 fee if he mails the payment, so he crosses the river each month instead.

CHURCH PRIEST MARRIES MINI-PIGS

YILAN: Two pet mini-pigs have been married in Taiwan with the blessing of a church priest.
The male pig, two-year-old Xu Fuge, is the PR manager of a farm in Yilan city, reports Taiwan News.
"He walks around the farm restaurant to welcome guests who are very fond of him. I made him an ID card," says farm owner Xu Wenchuan.
“My PR manager is getting so busy each day that he hardly has time to eat and sleep. Considering his great performance, I decided to help him find a wife”.
Ten pigs were put forward as brides once the farmer made public his intentions, reports Taiwan News. Local priest, Joseph Lv hosted the wedding, two parrots acted as bridesmaid and groomsman, and city mayor, Lv Guohua, turned up to witness the marriage.






PUB SLAMMED FOR SICK DISH

LONDON: A pub has been criticised for selling a dish called 'Barrymore Pie - Faggots swimming in gravy'.
The name refers to the death of Stuart Lubbock, found drowned in the pool at Michael Barrymore's home in 2001, reports the Mirror, London.
Landlord Peter Towler says he will not bow to complaints from people offended.
He insisted: "These people say this is not funny but their behaviour is turning it into a joke. I am sorry that they are upset but I will not be bullied.
“I will not bow to this pressure. I sell about 100 Barrymore Pies a week. I suppose I could change its name to Politically Correct Pie.”
The dish is on the menu with Wham, Bam, Thank You Lamb and Henpecked Chicken pie at Mad O'Rourkes in Tipton, West Midlands.

GYM TO OFFER NAKED SESSIONS

HETEREN: A gym in Holland is to offer naked fitness sessions for naturists on Sundays.
The Dutch Naturist Federation says the fitness centre in Heteren will be the first in the country to cater for naturists.
Gym owner Patrick De Man said: "People undress for taking a sauna, why not for exercising?"
He came up with the idea after two naturists joined the gym and asked about nude sessions.
"Every gymnastic equipment will be disinfected after each session and we will use covers for the exercise bike saddles," he said. AGENCIES
