I reproduce this from the latest edition of Monkey Biz, first page second para

"With the finances in a truly shocking state thanks to a succession of conmen, chancers and shytehawks "

Brilliant, I doubt you would get such a succinct narrative from any other part of the English speaking world

You can find a poet on every street corner in East Durham.

Surely we can put Monkey Business up for a literary award with a huge cash prize to save the day
