I'm unduly irritated by the meat pie couple story going viral via the Gazette. A THREAD.

I thought this pair looked familiar, and then I realised it's the same couple I had on the side bar of the local news blog I ran from 2010 called The Nether Regions. Tony and Linda Gilkes. The whole point of the blog was to celebrate the way local newspapers have to resort to reporting on tedious local happenings which are strangely entertaining, often funny, and kind of charming. This story is none of those things. It's just crap.
