				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good afternoon, Wonky Windsor here with some splendid information for you. During his recent UK holiday, to stay with his best friend <strong>David Cameron</strong>, the King Of China <strong>Xi Jinping</strong> forgot to announce the winner of his country&#8217;s &#8220;Nobel&#8221; peace prize. But he&#8217;s just remembered and faxed the 2015 results through to my home. Imagine my delight that fellow ex-Beckworth School pupil (and in his day head boy) <strong>Robert</strong> &#8220;Bobby The Bobster&#8221; <strong>Mugabe</strong> was the well deserved winner. Mr Bobster, always humble in victory, is said to be delighted and is quoted on the fax as saying &#8220;This is one in the eye for all my imprisoned critics. Now if anyone says i&#8217;m not peaceful, I have proof that I am. And I will have them shot. Immediately&#8221;. The magnanimous Mr Bobby Mugabe is the latest in a long line of noble China peace prize winners and he follows in the graceful footsteps of such luminaries as <strong>Vladimir Putin</strong>, <strong>Fidel Castro</strong>, <strong>Joseph Stalin</strong>, <strong>Manuel Noriega,</strong> <strong>Attila The Hun, </strong>and <strong>Margaret </strong>&#8220;Maggie&#8221;<strong> Thatcher</strong>. Congratulations to Robert and to the Mugabe family who still own a butchers shop on the outskirts of town. Yours Sir T.T. “Wonky” Windsor. President. Beckworth School Old Boys</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello all, <strong>Prof Brian Cox</strong> here. Once again, and I do mean again, I am using my brain that that&#8217;s the size of a planet to answer your repeatedly tedious questions. I&#8217;m a patient, yet extremely busy, celebrity doctor with gorgeous hair aiming to improve your humdrum lives, but please stop trying to elicit the same b****y information from me. At this time of year I can be certain that some k**b will ask me why do leaves go brown, is it time to put the central heating on or why do the clocks change? I got asked the latter just yesterday by one of my foreign celebrity fans, <strong>Xi Jinping</strong>, the King of China who I met at a boring function in London. On being introduced to me he failed to bow or even mention how great my hair looked, which put me in a bad mood. Then, to add insult to injury, he got me to sign an <strong>Ultravox</strong> 12&#8243; single. Even though I&#8217;d said I was in <strong>Tears For Fears</strong>. Anyway, I told him in no uncertain terms, as i&#8217;m telling you, please make the effort to read my fact filled blog entry (on this site) about the b****y clocks changing, as I only wrote it two years ago. It&#8217;s all there and i&#8217;m in no mood to repeat myself. &#8216;Nuff said. The king looked a bit crest-fallen when I had to rush off and leave him, but I had an important engagement to play croquet with my new best friends <strong>The Duke &amp; Duchess of Cambridge</strong> and <strong>David Cameron</strong>. No doubt i’ll be back answering your insipid queries soon, so keep the faith. Ta ta, Prof Brian Cox.</p>
