Harry Ballsview The only Richard Littlejohn lookielikie to write for a national newspaper Stop This Commonwealth Games Freak Show! Why oh why oh why is it that only freaks are taking part in the Commonwealth Games? Why is it that only the lanky skinny freaks qualify for the swimming and the high jump? And take a look at the hammer and discus events. The sport is littered with bulky porkers who you wouldn't want to have to sit next to on an airplane or train. This must stop! Just imagine the hilarious carnage it would be if boxing only had one weight division? Because that's what it's like at the moment, make no mistake. Today I start a campaign to force all competitive sports to have weight/height divisions.

Well done Daily Moan my coffee break would not be the same without you." Henry, Buckingham: "I am only 4ft9. Why is it that I am not allowed to compete in the high jump at the Commonwealth Games? It's a bleedin disgrace." Miss, Piggy: "Why aren't the American's competing in the Commonwealth Games? Weren't they a colony once?" Tony, Downing: "It's about time someone said what you said even though it would mean the Commonwealth Games having to be extended to run for 3 months. Well done!" 20 March
