A Barn fit for a Bride!

Bridegroom Rob Aynesworth built his own reception venue after having problems finding one its a £100,000 replica of a Tudor cruck barn – a timber barn constructed round an 'A' frame of oak behind his father's pub,The Craven Arms, in the Dales village of Appletreewick.

The project took him a year and was completed only hours before their wedding.

BUILDERS' BUMS BLASTED

Builders came top in a list of annoying habits today when they were battered for baring their bums in public.

A survey of 500 householders showed that letting jeans or trousers slip down to expose bits of the body which should really stay private, was the biggest complaint.

Constantly asking for tea, poor personal hygiene and not saying please or thank you were other tradesmen's traits which upset people.

Junk removal firm Any Junk? said that following its study, company employees were provided with a belt so that had no excuse for flashing any flesh below their waist.
