An advertisement on behalf of a respected (probably) magazine (Teh
Boeksellor) in the jobs section of a UK newspaper that shall ever remain
nameless (Teh Gindauria)[1]:
.... the news team seeks a highly professional and ambitious reporter to
generate and write news ...
I admire their honesty in the Street of Shame.
[1] Introduced into this household this morning by an offspring, never
by its parent. But the monkey puzzler crossword setter afforded some
brief entertainment over lunch.

It's okay, neither can Teh Grauniad.
But you've reminded me that the caption for a large photo in Saturday's
sports section read
caption caption caption

And in this case (is it upper or lower?) I meant to post 'i can't
count'.
And then to add that of course it wasn't an anagram, in order to protect
