Did you hear about the bomb in Exeter?

It hadn't even blown the bloomin' door off, which is the least you'd expect for some kind of terror attack. It wasn't us claim the Pasty Liberation Front.

Capital City of Devon - Exeter - was rocked to its very foundations when a "device" went off in Giraffe.

Shops and businesses had an unexpected half day closing following a mental health service user's mis hap with some chemicals and a couple of nails in the toilets of fat-food outlet Giraffe at the edge of the city's new Princesshay development.

Amidst the initial confusion reports were of fatalities and heavy casualties as the "mega balst" rocked the city centre.

The Pasty Liberation Front - one of whoms members iworks in offices on Southernhay adjacent to Giraffe - was quick to deny any invlovement with the organisation adding to its statement "we were a little puzzled that we didn't hear a peep at the time of the "explosion" yet watching the news pasty munching members of the public were claiming really loud bangs were heard as far away as the Odeon Cinema".

"It is an obvious assumption that we would be looking to stop this sort of non-pasty fast food business but letting off fireworks in toilet cubuicles is definately not our style. We cannot condone the actions of this "bomber" although we may have shed the odd crocodile tear"

Reports on This Isn't Exeter are more blunt: "It hadn't even blown the bloody door off, which is the least you'd expect for some kind of terror attack"

Bomb Squad Land Rovers still on patrol

Frivolity aside it is still a stark reminder that "it could happen" and the sight of an increased police presence in the city centre is un-nerving.

And the old joke about "does my bomb look big in this" isn't the same round these parts.

Basil Brush simply commented "Boom Boom"
