A packed show today that included some serious local news stories about Brentwood Borough Council and The Archbishop of Canterbury’s attack on payday lenders.

But never mind about all that – what we really wanted was these stupid news stories! –

TOWN hall bosses have said no to nudity in their family resort after a naked bike ride was branded as just too rude.
Outraged councillors are calling for a clampdown on naked events, which they said could harm tourism in Tendring.
Last month a charity naked swim was staged on Clacton’s West Beach followed by seperately organised naked bike ride around the town on Saturday July 20.

Now Tendring Council leader Peter Halliday wants to put the brakes on further events he is concerned could offend and put off visitors.
“Clacton is a traditional family seaside resort and in my opinion people riding around on bikes with no clothes on does nothing to enhance our image – in fact it harms it,” he said.

AND – A seagull has managed to steal a set of false teeth.
Pensioner Renee A’Bear took out her teeth so she could eat a biscuit.
The 92-year-old was sipping a cup of tea and feeding the birds outside her care home.
Staff at Eridge House Residential Home in Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex later found the expensive teeth on the roof of the home.
Linda Stevens, who is in charge at the home, said: “All of us, including Renee, have seen the funny side.
“But she’s going to be a bit more careful in future as to which birds she feeds.”

More stupidity tomorrow including the story of the man who claimed he was only buying tomatoes from the prostitute he had just picked up in his car… What a wonderful world we live in!
