Scandal in Paris!

At last, the intense media speculation concerning Curly Bob's "punitive" prison regime has proved too much for the French Government. A reliable source inside the Elysee Palace has disclosed that they could not be seen to admit to this so a cover story was needed to divert attention from Bob.

Last week they "leaked" a story concerning the French President. Allegedly he had been spotted making trips to a notorious "boite d'or( A honey den disguised as a night club nightclub) near to the Elysee Palace in Paris.

Apparently he has been accompanied by a massive brute of a bodyguard who is also quite partial to a spoonful or two of Yucatan Gold or Orange Blossom Honey!

Clearly this state of affairs could not continue. The Prime Minister has repeatedly stated that his level of honey consumption is a private matter but this did not satisfy the press.

French journalists have explained to me that the French public is far more tolerant of such goings on than here in the U.K. They are far more concerned about the state of the French economy and in particular the shortages of honey which has pushed the street price through the roof. The average Frenchman or woman has had to resort to using sugar in their tea and coffee("Ughh" - Curly Bob). Bears all over France are threatening to take to the streets.

Therefore Curly Bob has had his community service order quashed, allegedly for good behavior. He was bundled out of pokey late last night and was fairly disgruntled because he had missed his bedtime story!

He was whisked away by car to an unknown destination sporting his favourite R.N.L.I. sweater and IPad tucked under his paw. Needless to say Bob was not allowed to comment to the press camped outside the prison.

I have been informed that once his documents are in order he will be free to leave (more like deported- Ed) and we shall have him safely back at home. Hopefully I can then get back to some painting. Speaking of which, I have instructions to post "Farmhouse, Grotte, Sicily #2" a watercolour from 2006.
