I saw my ex-girlfriend last night. Well, you know what it's like, you start remembering the good times and stuff.... Anyway, one thing led to another, and, obviously, we ended up having sex.

The police were really pissed off though. They kept shouting things like "you're only here to identify the body" at me through the glass.

Yesterday on BBC News Wales:

The mystery of why an entire village lost its broadband every morning at 7am was solved when engineers discovered an old television was to blame.

An unnamed householder in Aberhosan, Powys, was unaware the old set would emit a signal which would interfere with the entire village's broadband.

After 18 months engineers began an investigation after a cable replacement programme failed to fix the issue.

The embarrassed householder promised not to use the television again.

The village now has a stable broadband signal.

Openreach engineers were baffled by the continuous problem and it wasn't until they used a monitoring device that they found the fault.

The householder would switch their TV set on at 7am every morning - and electrical interference emitted by their second-hand television was affecting the broadband signal.

The owner, who does not want to be identified, was "mortified" to find out their old TV was causing the problem, according to Openreach.

"They immediately agreed to switch it off and not use it again," said engineer Michael Jones.

"The owner, who does not want to be identified,"
which is why the Daily Mail promptly named them, complete with photos! Apparently they turned it on to watch Piers Morgan ...
