    "Abusive notes found inside Christmas crackers A group of partygoers has found abusive notes inside
    Christmas crackers with "fat b*****ds" and other insults written on them.

    Pranksters had removed the usual jokes in the crackers and replaced them with the insults.

    The incident is said to have ruined a Christmas party for 40 Workington council staff at Hunwith
    Hill Hotel in Cockermouth, Cumbria.

    A woman in her 50s was one of several workers who got the "fat b*****ds" note, while others got a
    note reading: "You've not won anything so f*** off."

    council workers said: "It put the mockers on the whole night. The abuse was beyond the pale."

    The partygoers complained to the hotel, which put them in touch with the firm which supplied the
    crackers - Thompson Medd, of Bishop Auckland, County Durham.

    The company has promised an investigation, says The Sun.

    I like it too - I see it happened in County Durham, though. It would never happen in Norfolk ...
    Reminds me of the revenge of the disgruntled employee of a seaside rock shop in Blackpool, who left
    a somewhat similar message through several hundred sticks of rock.
