Daily in my email inbox is the latest bonkers news story from spoof news site Newsbiscuit.com.

Started by John O’Farrell (occasional guest on Have I Got News for You), Newsbiscuit offers the opportunity for you to write spoof news items, and if they’re particularly good they become front page content, and as such might be the piece in the daily mailing.

And no, I’ve never made the daily mailing.

Recent highlights have included:

Referees ‘should wear uniforms when off duty’

Schools admission row; non-wizards offered Hogwarts

Essex man completes ‘all the porn on the internet’

If you’ve not joined in yet, I would recommend it heartily for anyone who is interested in developing their comedy writing.
