A seven year old boy was at the centre of a courtroom drama today when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.
The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge awarded custody to his aunt.

The boy however confirmed that his aunt beat him more than his parents, and refused to live there. When the judge suggested that he live with his grandparents the boy cried out that they beat him more than anyone. Then in an unprecedented move, the judge dramatically allowed the boy to choose who should have custody of him.

In a final ruling yesterday, custody was granted to the England Rugby Team as the boy firmly believes that they are not capable of beating anyone.

And actually if you did (because there are extra bits ont' web)

Stewart Lee interviews Alan Moore.

I did miss the very start, but it was a superb (and funny) interview. I especially liked his reaction to being offered significant amounts of money for the film versions of Constantine, Watchmen and V for Vendetta - after he had said that he would no longet have anything to do with Hollywood...

Next week Alan interviews Brian Eno.

Am I alone in this?

It seems to be a trend at the moment - a number of people on my friends list seem to have been getting things that they had either forgotten about, were not expecting so soon, or were not expecting at all.

I have joined this club today and the contents of the package did make me smile muchly.

I am not prepared to expand further as part of the content is a present for someone who can read this and will be there on Friday - I would like the gift to be a surprise for them.

*squeeeeeee*
