Axe? Pass the Bolly.

How to spoil the party. Get this: " New Year's Eve celebrations in a quiet Devon village were ruined after a 27-year-old local man was killed and two others injured in a knife and axe attack." Well that would do it. No coming back from that is there, with blood and bits all over the place.
Might as well go home and try again another night.
Such a party pooper! The front page of The Times really seems to feel the pain of the folk who got all dressed up only to have a mad axe man in their midst. Who invited him?
Never mind the carnage, it's all about the ruined celebrations. Has the paper gone mad? This is on the front page. It tells the full story on page 8, but really, is this the right tone ? Call me old fashioned but I think not Mr Editor, I think not.
