    As topical an offering as anyone could wish. And good for a laugh, too - what more could we ask?

    Short and sweet.

    I have to admit that I don't really like the picture. I'm an old style feminist; I don't like naked women served up on a bed of something......

    Friko, I agree with you. When Victoria Pendleton won a cycling gold medal at the World Championships she appeared naked on a bike in the "Observer." When Chris Hoy did the same, he got a knighthood. When are women going to cry "Enough"

    Great haiku Lucy! Most times delicate parcel posts come first class and with handlers. She is in good hands!

    What's this, what's this? A haiku that makes it into the poetry category. Fun, too!
