Front of the Bucks Herald this week was the headline, "Prison Officer Gives Birth to Inmate's Love Child"

Why is that funny?
It's not - it's a hideously smug use of a completely outdated phrase.
I bet about 30% of the circulation have a so-called Love Child in their family these days.

I was tempted to write them a letter, but in the end I decided - nah, not worth it. I have a backlog of letters to write to the Express and the Mail asking them why they hate Great Britain anyway.
