Bridgend's Brave Bombardier is Home
A special report from Science and Technology correspondent Alun Tudor Jones
The daring deeds of Mr. W are adored throughout
the Galaxy and Bridgend is no exception. Although tired and a little constipated, the Rocketman basks in glory. In the right background, two
luminous green flying saucers bid him their final farewell
For the last two years, Bridgend's own Rocketman (AKA 'Mr. W') has worked on the NASA project, 'To Infinity And Beyond', establishing cordial relationships with alien life forms across the Galaxy. Yesterday evening, Mr. W. returned home in triumph.
Overshot
The Rocketman took up the tale of the re-entry. "I had intended to re-enter the Earth's atmosphere over the Football Club with an ETA of 22.30 hours, so I could have a few beers in the Five Bells", he drawled in a noticeably changed accent that is now a mixture of American and Alien. "But, I overshot and landed near Sarn Services. Gee, that traffic on your freeway scared me", he concluded.
Old
Regulars at Mr. W's favourite hostelry welcomed their hero home with open arms, to the strains of 'Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree', which proved to be emotionally exhausting for the modest Superhero.
STOP PRESS
News is breaking from Mount Earl Observatory that a strange and angry alien life form has erupted from Mr. W's bottom.
