Zen Newsflashes

• Doing football paintings of Tony Currie and Pope John Paul II. One a mystical enigma worshipped by many, the other a bloke who lived in Rome
• @tracey_thorn After years of trying a buddhist approach, I've found old fashioned traps with a raisin/cashew bait have got rid of our mice.
• @jackseale I'm afraid my Gruffalo voice is not very original. Usually it's Brian Blessed but I sometimes go off-piste with a Richard Burton.
• @jackseale Love your Gruffalo voices. Here are mine - Mouse: Julie Burchill, Fox: Leslie Phillips, Snake: Klaus Kinski, Owl: Alan Bennett.
