You can save your own bricks mate..............

Following England's woeful turn at the World Cup, British sport's chiefs are looking to field a strong team for the 2012 Olympics, to be staged in what is now London, but in future times could be called Cleggsville, or Cameron Villas.

Mr Russell Sprout, from the Sport's Federation told us: 'It is important that England has a strong Olympic team, if only to justify a lot of the money that is currently being taken from schools, hospitals, and the arts, so we are to look towards England's strong traditions.'

Accoding to Mr Sprout there will be weight lifting, using only the stiff upper lip, the careless shrug will be used as a Karate move, and we will have a brick rescuing team - "like they used to have in Schools."

There are 1,000's of people who spent Tuesday mornings at Comprehensive schools, in germ infested swimming pools, in their pyjamas, rescuing Bricks.

"It is about time that we made the best use of those talents," said Russell Sprout.

The federation is also looking into introducing events for tutting, queueing, and whinging. They hope to have a strong team for all of those events, if unfair, and outdated, national stereotypes are to be believed.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
