Recent excitement about seeing an Englishman going out in the midday sun, was in itself remarkable not only because of the unusual appearance of the sun at this time of year, but more particularly that it appeared at noon, has now been eclipsed, as the Nations lungs were almost overfilled of breath intakes, there suddenly appeared this mans wife.


As shock waves rippled through communities across the nation, even Mr & Mrs Tombony at no 17 were inspired to but the milk bottles out together, before it got dark.


Ladies who used to walk the dog in the park, have now been seen walking their husbands, whilst the dog stares wistfully through the net curtains at home.


BBC have announced a rebranding of a popular series, now to be called “A Man and his Wife” in an effort to boost flagging Licence fees.


Terms like “a couple” have been trending although scholars have been scrolling through parchments and dictionaries to see if there are historically any connection to other interpretation of that particular described activity.


A palace Spokesman said “One would prefer not to comment about the term Couple, as it could mean “one” then another “one” , but he would not go so far as to say it implied in any way that “One” was giving the other “One” One, (as it were ), and hopefully not in public.

Humpty Dumpty is not a working royal and will not be allowed to carry out official engagements such as 'sitting on walls', a letter sent on behalf of the King spells out. He will remain 'a free range egg', says the Lord Chamberlain, a top Palace official.


The King's letter has been sent to Mr Dumpty's team, government departments, military officials and all the King's Horses, according to Palace sources. It makes clear that any engagements carried out Humpty will be in a private capacity and he will not be representing the 'jolly old soul' in any capacity.


It seems to be something of a shot across the bows, making clear that any visits by the egg should not be treated as royal engagements. This comes ahead of what are likely to be public appearances by Humpty Dumpty this autumn. He has kept a very low profile since falling off the wall.


The message from the King emphasises that the position agreed when he was 'put back together again' - the so-called Scrambling Agreement - is still in place. This ruled out any 'half-in and half-out' status, as he is most definitely not 'a curate's egg'.
