1) A young girl who was blown out to sea on a set of inflatable teeth

was

rescued by a man on an inflatable lobster. A coast guard spokesman

commented, "This sort of thing is all too common". (The Times)

 

2) At the height of the gale, the harbourmaster radioed a coastguard and

asked him to estimate the wind speed. He replied he was sorry, but he
