    Editors welcomeFor me, August reminds me of

    being a child, growing up in BarryIsland, South Wales and in particular,the Barry Carnival.Years ago, in its halcyon days, the

    Barry Carnival boasted over 100floats- articulated lorries dressedfrom top to bottom with bunting, andfull of people in fancy dress around aparticular theme. These days, its just

    a Variety Sunshine coach with a fewkids waving Union Jacks out of theback window. Shame.

    So in time honoured tradition this month, my familyare going to recreate a parade for ourselves in ourlarge country mansion. Ive bought myself astrapping Tarzan outfit and my surgically-enhancedwife Brenda has bought herself some tassles to puton the end of her enormous juggernauts. Meanwhile,my darling 16 year old daughter has offered to give ahand to help relieve the drivers and young Timmy

    has set up a Coke stall for the local fete.Isnt it great to see the kids gettinginvolved?Have a great August. Editor

    This is a real-lifephoto of a meekie

    Meekie Fact: Meekies can be found thewhole world over even in places likeHolland

    Sigh! Do we really have to go throughthis every month?

    For those of you who do not yet know, a meekie is a person witha very large head, usually through no fault of their own. There isnothing wrong with these people. Meekie Monthly aims tocelebrate these amazing people and has been doing so since1988.

    This is a drawing of a meekie by a well-renowned artist

    By Staff Reporter Gordon Stribling

    Vicky Pollard, the rude, obnoxious schoolgirl created by recently-married gay comedian Matt Lucas and his comedy partner, the'definitely not gay so stop asking' David Walliams, attackedCatherine Tate's almost identical creation Lauren Cooper yesterdayduring a Geography lesson.

    Lyndzi Shuttleworth, a teaching assistant who witnessed theincident described how a discussion about earthquakes sparked itoff. "Lauren was mouthing off about some unrelated rubbish as sheoften does and you could see Vicky getting more and more

    agitated. She just wanted to learn about tectonic plates. Those twohave had issues with each other since Lauren started hogging thelimelight."

    Lauren responded to the teacher's request for quiet by shouting,quite loudly, "Am I bovvered?", which was enough to send Vickyover the edge. "She just flipped and leapt over the table over towards Lauren. The teacher tried to retain order but before hecould the encounter had descended into a 2-way bout of aggressive catchphrase-tennis". Both participants were stuck in aloop of nonsensical teenage ramblings. "I don't think Nigel [theteacher] could do anything. He tried to break it up but he probablyhadn't been taught how to deal with this kind of situation before."

    Walter Sensibly, a well-behaved classmate of the two girls tried

    reasoning with them but was quickly shouted down. "I tried tellingthem that they were both hilarious fictional characters, but theydidn't want to know."

    Every month, Meekie Monthly celebratesbeautiful ginger people by giving them

    an award. Arent we nice?

    Name: Liz Hometown: Cardiff Why I love being ginger: I've alwaysliked the colour and it certainly attractscompliments! I quite like being

    automatically different, too.

    MY LEONARDThis months cover bandareBarry rockers My Leonard.

    Back in the mid 1990s,Barry town rocked to thebig guitar sound of theHappy Kings. For a while,

    the Kings ruled the town,putting in some legendaryperformances in Camdenand Cardiff. After somerock and roll dust-ups, theHappy Kings went their separate ways. And that was that.

    Fortunately though, the majority of the band have decided to dustdown their guitar cases, plug in and make some more noise.Headed up by Jim on guitar and vocals, My Leonard have addednew band members, including Zelda on vocals, and Alan onguitar. Banging on the bongos is Jon and on bass, Dylan, who waswriting music at the tender age of 13.

    My Leonard are now in the studio laying down some new tracksfor the autumn, but until then, Meekie Monthly is proud to give itsreaders one of their classic numbers the Last Straw.

    Rugby World Cup PreviewRugby is a complicated game. In a recent study, over 90% of professionalplayers said that they did not understand most of the rules. Worringly, analarming 96% of referees said the same. This month, Meekie Monthlyintroduces the backs, and what they should be doing in theory

    The FlyThe FlyThe FlyThe Fly- ---Half (no 10)Half (no 10)Half (no 10)Half (no 10)The fly-half is generally the personwho gets abuse from the crowd for kicking the ball around too much.They also like to try and bluff their

    way past defenders. However thisusually results in a horrific tackle andshouts of Why didnt you kick it?

    Full back (no 15)Full back (no 15)Full back (no 15)Full back (no 15)Full-backs often look a lonelysight. It is their responsibility to bethe last person to miss the tacklebefore the opposing side score.Often put under a high ball, thefull back is often gets swivel eyesyndrome where they keep one

    eye on the ball and the other onthe opposing team closing in onthem. Like to shout Mark a lot

    Scrum Half (no 9)Scrum Half (no 9)Scrum Half (no 9)Scrum Half (no 9)The scrum half is the link between the packand the backs. As such, he is the player mostlikely to get late tackled. He has to put the ballinto the scrum in such a way that the first per-son to touch the ball is the second row in his

    team. He then takes it out of the scrum wherehe expects it to (unlikely)

    Wings (no 11Wings (no 11Wings (no 11Wings (no 11& 14)& 14)& 14)& 14)These speedsters arerarely used in a gameand often get boredand come infield,leaving the forwards

    to cover their position.Can cover role of spectator or linesman

Theinside centres job is to shout tothe No 10, If youd have passedthat then, Id have been in andthe outside centres job is toshout the same thing to the insidecentre.Inside centres like to play crashball where he runs heads firstinto an opponent. This can go

    Big Brother are all the contestants nutters?

    Lisa Jeynes

    I think since my serieswhen I was put in to stir

    it up that producersrealised they needed toput stronger characters

    in. (Hey I started thatoff!). Unfortunately, as

    the years have gone on

    the housemates are{well most of them} arequite unstable to start off with and trying to shock

    the viewer, also famehungry. Most of them

    amount to nothing whenthey come out.

    What do you thinkDebs?

    I think you shouldfok up and go

    home

    Every month we ask a cross section of the population to cast their thoughts on a topical topic. This month weve spoken toseveral high profile people plus a tabloid columnist. Heres what they had to say about this years Big Brother

    Stuart Cable

    I dont watch thatshit mate.!!!!

    The beauty queen

    One answer yes

    Imogen Thomas

    Apart from one or twoof them...they act like5 year olds carryingteddy bears.!!They need to wakeup to the fact its a

    reality show and stop talking about deals theywant when they get out.. You don't necessarily

    walk into a TV career from Big Brother

    The former housemate

    Are they nuts? Hmmm Whilst I may not be the most knowledgeable on the subject due to the fact Igenerally pass-out after watching the twincredibles for more than a couple of minutes I would indeed support this theory: Where else would youfind a six-foot man scared of animals, and a thirty-seven year old woman who collects carrier bags, I ask you?

    Girls these days dont get to sit down with their grannies andtaught what they should do. There are books on etiquette but itsall outdated like lifting up your littlefinger when drinking from a cup.Who drinks from a cup and saucer any more? From my careful obser-vation of more feminine femalesthan me, I have developed the tenmost important things to remember.Do this and you cant go wrong.

    1. Learn to walk in knife-sharp high

    heels without falling over.2. Learn to get up gracefully when youfall over.3. Use heels to kill any man wholaughs at you for falling over.4. Insist on drinking with a straw, even when drinking pints of beer.Something to do with your lipstick, I think.

    5. Develop the art of putting on makeup in the car without looking likea clown.6. Wait till the car stops before putting in earrings, unless you neednew piercings.7. Cross your legs when wearing a skirt. Unless youre Sharon Stone.8. Always wear good pants. Unless youre Sharon Stone, see above.9. Find your perfect perfume- it should attract men like flies and suffo-cate other women, thus ridding you of competition.10. Pretend to be a lesbian. If you really are a lesbian, pretend yourenot.

    This month: the live earth message with Joss Stone.

    Alright my lovelies? Me again Joss Supersoul Stone ere with tips n tricks Ivemade up to save the world, just like I saved soul music with my supersoul voice.

    Well here they are my lovelies:

    1 Dont drive to the shops to buy my new CD

    2 Dont buy my new CD3 or any of the old ones (theyre just as shit)4 Dont turn your computer on to buy my songs off itunes5 Turn the TV off when I come on6 and the radio

    It may not save the planet but itll be the end of my career and thats somethingat least.

    On a more serious note what is a really good idea though is to have loads of concerts around the world spunking carbon from the massive amounts of generators theyll need to power the shows. Genius.

    t h e e a r t h m u s t

    l i v e by Meekie hack, James Harris

    Editorial comment: some readers may be previously aware that the author James Harris isnt amassive fan Ms Stone. We respect the fact that James has an opinion on the young singer.

    Join Meekie in looking into how you can save theworld with the help of some popstars.

    Were all becoming aware of our carbonfootprint, and we should all be workingto reduce ours. Meekie Monthly tells youhow to work yours out and what to doto help the environment.

    1. Add together the amount of unitsyou use for gas and electricity
