Although female stereotypes say I should not be interested in football or sports, I was quite interested to read today that Arsenal's Nicklas Bendtner wrote off his £160k Aston Martin on the way to the training ground on Sunday morning. Fortunately, the football star was uninjured, however will not be playing in the Champions League game against Olympiakos. The police are not enquiring into the accident, as a witness has reported that Bendtner was not speeding or driving in a dangerous manner. It is believed a brief lapse of concentration caused the car to career off the A1 on Sunday morning.

Many people have already heard the Pilkington story: A mother drove her disabled daughter to a lay-by and set fire to the car with them both inside after suffering torrents of abuse from local yobs in 2007. An inquest yesterday found that the police and council actions contributed to their deaths. An investigation has been launched, however Chief Constable Baggot, the officer in charge of the unit that failed to protect Ms Pilkington, has failed to apologise for their deaths.
