Hehe, but you've gotta admit the leap was pretty impressive. Poor Jim.

Indeed, poor Jim. Set aside those slipped disks and a workless two years for the Tomato, I'm pleased to say that Jim has recovered sufficiently enough to be pictured in yesterday and today's News Letter. A triumph of the will.

I personally think Jim got good hang-time. Perhaps, as one unaccustomed to approaching a lady from behind, he just totally fluffed it. Either way - Jim Rodgers... hero.

Stuff and nonsense Bob! All our hero did was to merely brush the side of the aforementioned tomato's head. There is no way she sustained a slipped disc from that. This is nothing but a fiendish plot by Cunningplan house to discredit our, erm, 820 vote UUP champion!

In any case, the tomato is just looking for a big compensation pay out so she never has to work and indeed suffer the indignity of dressing up as a tomato ever again. Just right too, I am currently investigating how plausible walking into a sharp object might seem. Suppose I could always just dress up as a piece of fruit and find an obliging news editor to leap over my head....
