Another vote for Rotherham
Rotherham locals were shocked when news recently reached them of the death of one of music's great performers, visibly stunned some wept whilst and others refuse to believe Elvis was dead.

Queues formed at the recent opening of Pound Land in Rotherham, local man Ron, who refused to have his picture taken for fear it would steal his soul, remarked "It's about time Rotherham had an up market shop like Pound Land"

Rotherham's main (and only) cinema screened the latest James Bond film to arrive in Rotherham yesterday, but trouble broke out when supporters of Sean Connery booed Roger Moore whenever he appeared on screen.

A £20 note is making local chip shop owner, Alf Buttress, a fortune, "A chap from Sheffield recently called in and paid for his fish and chips with a £20 note, I did manage to give him is change but it took all my pennies" remarked Alf, "But since then word has got round that a £20 note was in my shop so I put it up for display and folks round here are coming in to the chippie to see it, some travelling from Rawmarsh even. And I've heard there is a coach party from Chesterfield coming up in August"

More breaking news from Rotherham as it happens ....
