    Prime Minsiter Silvio Berlusconi wipes his face, staining his handkerchief with his make-up
    Ceremony of Delivery of Honours to the New Knights of Work, Rome, Italy - 19 Oct 2011
    It has long been said that Silvio Berlusconi should clean up his act and today the Italian PM appeared to do just that. Attending a special ceremony in Rome Berlusconi appeared to be feeling overly warm and took out a snowy white tissue to mop his brow. Unfortunately for him, it not only removed the beads of sweat but also the thick layer of make-up he had covering his skin. Apparently unaware of the damage he was wreaking to his carefully applied foundation, the 75-year-old continue to dab at his skin and left the once white tissue smeared with orangey streaks.

    Bullet-proof handkerchief, A designer has created the world's first bullet-proof handkerchief for fashionable gentlemen with dangerous lifestyles. Created by Sruli Recht, the life-saving fashion item, designed to 'protect the heart of men,' has been dubbed the 21st century's answer to the ninja dandy's handkerchief. Made of Kevlar, the super stylish accessory is five times stronger than steel.
    Blowing Your Nose Away
    BLOWING YOUR NOSE AWAY

    You can rest assured that Q never got round to designing one of these for James Bond.

    Marketed by Icelandic inventor/'fashion' designer Sruli Recht as "the bullet-proof handkerchief for the promiscuous idealist who lives in elegant danger", the 'Dæmdur', or "The Damned" is a Kevlar hankie, designed to be placed in a jacket's breast pocket, that will "protect the hearts of men".

    Kevlar is the ultra-strong material, five times the strength of steel, used to make protective vests for Formula 1 drivers and which can withstand a bullet as well as temperatures of up to around 400 degrees centigrade.

    The life-saving accessory is currently only available from Iceland's Liborious store and, although the island nation hardly tops the global gun crime charts, comes with a disclaimer from Recht and Liborious stating that they "take NO responsibility for schmucks and wooden-heads who feel compelled to test the endurance or resistance of the textile in any way".

    The product is offered solely in Military Grade Kevlar Aramid, all in a tasteful lemon colour and bordered with either raw golden silk or citric French cotton, in packs of ten, priced at 120 euros (around GBP 94).

    An ideal Christmas present for Uncle Corleone then?

Katherine docks , the surrey commercial , the West India and Millwall , the East India , and the Royal Victoria and Albert and George the fifth docks . The port of London also includes Tilbury docks , which are near the sea , twenty six miles downstream from London bridge .

    Picture shows:- A few hundred yards from the docks in which the great ships lie are the mean streets in which the Dockers live . This one is on the borders of Whitechapel and Shadwell .

    BACK FROM THE ANTARTCTIC

    After three years among the desolate wastes of the Antarctic, three young British scientists have returned to civilisation.
    The relief ship was unable to break through the stiff pack-ice which surrounded the advance base on Stonington island in Marguerite Bay. Rescued had to be achieved by air, and a Norseman aircraft brought them to safety. today the great adventure over, they landed at London airport.
    Although marooned, the British party of 10 had ample food and fuel stocks. Only disappointment was the failure of the relief ship ' John Biscoe ' to make its yearly call with letters.
    The scientists investigated the islands weather, minerals, and topography.

    PICTURE SHOWS:- Bernard Stonehouse , one of the three British scientists , pictured on his arrival at London airport.
