Take a sharp knife - Make deep incision, on arm or leg, say - pour in four ounces of cooking salt - rub vigorously!!
This is pretty fucking cynical from a 'supposedly' local newspaper. One that never uttered a word against the vandalism, perpetrated by the duplicitous knob-heads on OMBC, as they systematically closed out our once 'world famous' Tommyfield Market.
Perhaps we should all take out subscriptions to the 'Chesterfield Advertiser' and ask them if they would be prepared to cover important, (to us), matters in Oldham.
There should be plenty in it for them - Just think of all the photos they could sell!
