I really thought we deserved a two-pointer on this morning's Headline Game on TFM radio.
The story was about a cock-up on BBC Five Live. A female newsreader announced that international outrage had been sparked by nuclear testing in North Yorkshire - instead of North Korea.
Our brilliant headline by sub-editor Phil Storey was "Bad Korea move". It earned a point but wasn't enough to save us from a 3-2 defeat on the week.
Meanwhile, fellow blogger Nigel Dowson, of Cockfield, made me smile with his contribution to the Headline Game.
On my blog last night, I said we were torn between the North Korea story or another tale about a woman spotting the face of Jesus in a jar of Marmite as she was spreading it on a piece of toast.
The headline for that story was "The Father, Son, and Holy Toast".
Nigel respponded by saying he liked the North Korea headline but his mother preferred the one about Marmite.
"I suppose Ma Mite be right," he wrote.
He also suggested a headline for the North Korea story: "A slip of the Mao Tse Tung".
I'm not one to split hairs but I think you'll find that Mao Tse Tung was the leader of the People's Republic of China.
If Nigel's thinking of a Korea move, I suggest he sticks to hair-dressing.
