Last Thursday's Sun newspaper featured a story about five Iraqi asylum seekers who trashed their flat and then tried to blow it up because it was too small for them and cramped their love lives. The story goes, "The five men were put in a three-bedroom house with four sharing two double rooms. Furious they had no privacy to bring girls back, they trashed the house. Then, after thousands of pounds of repairs, they left the gas on for two days hoping the building would explode."
The caption under the photograph reads 'Thrown out... mattresses and rubbish pile up at the rear of the premisis'

Hey, the date on the paper - my birthday! If only I'd known about streetmattress then! But then I was never a Sun reader...

As I recall, I think it was asking if you were.

It says right there underneath they're "looking for a man."

And a day short of Valentine's Day too... These poor mattresses will see no lovin'. Well, not that they saw much in the first place, mind you.
