Second paragraph: "A total of 35 of William McGonagall's works - many of them autographed - have been up for auction in Edinburgh. The ditties by "The Tayside Tragedian" went for more than a collection of Harry Potter first editions signed by author JK Rowling." Oliver:

Did you read the bloody article? Second paragraph:

“A total of 35 of William McGonagall’s works – many of them autographed – have been up for auction in Edinburgh.

The ditties by “The Tayside Tragedian” went for more than a collection of Harry Potter first editions signed by author JK Rowling.”

We are an odd bunch the scots, as we seem to enjoy our failures as much as we do out successes. I think because either is a good excuse for a wee drinkie.

The second worst is that of the Azgoths of Kria. During a recitation by their poet master Grunthos the Flatulent of his poem "Ode to a Small Lump of Green Putty I Found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning" four of his audience died of internal haemorrhaging and the president of the Mid-Galactic Arts Nobbling Council survived by gnawing one of his own legs off. Grunthos was reported to have been "disappointed" by the poem's reception, and was about to embark on a reading of his 12-book epic entitled "My Favourite Bathtime Gurgles" when his own major intestine, in a desperate attempt to save humanity, leapt straight up through his neck and throttled his brain. The very worst poetry of all perished along with its creator, William McGonagall? Vogon poetry is mild by comparison. Vogon poetry is of course, the third worst in the universe.
