To paraphrase 90's Dutch pop ravers #2unlimited, today is a "@kleptones @kleptones @kleptones @kleptones @kleptones @kleptones @kleptones @kleptones...." day.....

I thought 'Oh, a silly grammar cock-up that makes for a fun local news story'. Then I read the first line. I won't spoil the surprise but maybe make sure there's no-one close when you yell 'OH FOR FU...'
