N. Hudson Wins Slander Charge.
Good Evening…
An old woman is said to be resting comfortably
tonight after losing her slander charge against Mr N. Hudson.
The story of Mr Hudson's misfortune is as follows;
Some 15 years ago, a then young Mr N. Hudson
was at work for **** Engineering Co. Ltd.
It was time for the morning tea break and being
the youngest, he made the tea.
This particular morning he had brought food from
home for his own consumption.
He set about asking his work mates what there
preferred sustenance would be.
They told him putting the correct amount of money
into his top overall pocket where it clinked and chinked and
Mr. N. knowing that he had no change to give out on his return,
was said to be very happy at this.
He then set off to the shop.
A Mrs Grim, who took the order and promptly made
up the list of sandwiches, ran the Penicillin Central Sandwich
Shop where the incident took place.
The line of people was said to have been considerable.
On completion of the order she asked for payment
of the said items.
Mr Hudson went to his top pocket emptying its
entire contents onto the counter in front of 20 witnesses.
This is where the problem arose.
Engineers being engineers had mistakenly given
Mr Hudson 12mm flat washers for bolts instead of money.
Mrs Grim insisted on payment, Mr Hudson had no
other currency.
The argument escalated and ended up with Mr Hudson
calling Mrs Grim "A sour faced, humourless, miserable, wart
faced old bag, with the looks and charm of a nit infested
gibbon".
It was the court's decision on seeing Mrs Grim,
that the accusation was and I quote "well in order" and this
was true and accurate.
Mr Hudson is said to be celebrating tonight with
family after what he calls "a terrible ordeal".
This was Eric Fattang Fazoofoy …….That's all
for now goodnight.
