Deep inside every journalist who works for a broadsheet newspaper, unmentioned and unmentionable, lurks the desire to write for a tabloid. I am indebted to the Guardian's "Diary" column for pointing me to this story, entitled "Fire whips though bondage parlour", from The Age newspaper in Melbourne about a fire in a facility devoted to bondage. Sit back, relax and enjoy the breathless prose:
"An MFB spokesman said 18 firefighters 'were tied up for some time but disciplined and controlled firefighting contained the blaze'"
I am certain that the credited journos, AAP & Reko Renni, needed to have a fag afterwards.
