Or a couple of alleged wartime headlines: "Monty flies back to front", and "Eighth Army push bottles up Germans". When the Titanic sank, it is alleged that the Aberdeen Press & Journal headline was "North East man lost at sea".
well if you want to be pedantic about it. Personally I was born in Newcastle General Hospital, so I’m definitely a Geordie. .
I always recall a headline in the Newcastle Evening Cronical “Seaman found in Tyne” nothing new there I though.
This definitely fits under the heading "You Cannot Make This Shite Up!". And it definitely fits into WTF Moments too, DD.
