Tales From The Tabs
There’s an interesting slant to post-Celtic Tiger Ireland in the Daily Star Sunday, which reports that high-street department store Debenhams has devised a “Divorce Gift List†– which will “guarantee divorcing couples get the break-up gifts they deserveâ€.
The report continues: “The new list is a toast to unhappy couples across Ireland and allows exes to pick the ideal pressies to suit their newfound singledom.
“Forget about dividing the assets – draw up a Divorce List and let your family and friends do the buying.â€
Whatever next.
Also in The Star, the author of a banned book on England striker Wayne Rooney has spoken out in defence of his work.
Rooney’s Gold, written by BBC journalist John Sweeney three years ago but the publication of which was postponed due to legal threats, has been banned by UK firm WH Smith.
The book details Rooney’s home-place of Croxteth in Liverpool, an Irish Catholic area which “has been beset by drugs and gangland style murdersâ€.
