Gimme Shelter

As we all settle in front of a warm fire, wearing our snug snanklets to shield us from this harsh, cruel winter - spare a thought for those less fortunate than ourselves.

Take this poor might for instance. Forced to wander the streets of London in nothing more than a scarf for a hat and an old red rag to keep her bones warm - her entire world possessions containing in a knackered old cardboard box.

"She calls out to the man on the street:

"Sir Can you help me?

It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep,

Is there somewhere you can tell me?"

He walks on, doesn't look back,

He pretends he can't hear her,

Starts to whistle as he crosses the street,

Seems embarrassed to be there"

It may be that the gentleman in question had seen the BBC coverage of Live 8.

Either way, think on.

Careful everyone. Remember what happened to Blart. Oh God. Thinking of it has set me off again. Have to go home now. Can't possibly do any work. Post Traumatic shock and all that.

"Mr. HM says... Gwyneth Paltrow's head."

This is the funniest, wittiest thing that anyone on the HM team has ever written. And it's a reference to a film made...fifteen years ago.

So, like, props to you, Mr HM, but, y'know...

There is a feedback form for people that aren't just trolling MJ. The difference in constructive feedback and mundane barking at the moon is subtle, but significant.

Trolling is a method of fishing where one or more fishing lines, baited with lures or bait fish, are drawn through the water.

I endure your trolling on a daily basis too x

But what's in the fucking box I ask you????! That's where the true suspense lies! I bet there's a world of unexplained flora and fauna in Fearne Cotton's scruffy box...

What's not to like about a girl I don't recognise carrying a box?

All I ask is a little effort.....I endure endless adverts and never complain about them but this is a shockingly bad story, I don't see the point in posting it. Sorry for offering feedback, obviously you know better than your readers when it comes to what constitutes an interesting story.
