Friday Caption Contest (His Name is Rio Edition)

The wittiest suggestion wins another copy of D.C. Alden’s The Horse at the Gates – a cracking read. The plot involves a nuclear blast detonated in Pakistan, a car bomb in Downing Street and another in a Luton mosque. Best of luck…

    His name was David, he wore a diamond

    And when he finished, he called him over

    And then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two
    There was blood and a single gun shot
    But just who shot who?

    But, of course I’ve no close contact, so what she is doing I can only guess.
    And now, Miss Mona, she’s a blemish on the face of that good town.
    I am taking certain steps here, someone somewhere’s gonna have to close her down.

    Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don’t-
    I’ve come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
