Do you remember the herald a few years ago when the front page was an april fool about a new boat service running from town centre to the edge of the town?

I'm ashamed to say that got me  >:(

I got an email from Swinton insurance this morning saying that I should think about insuring against an alien attack or something like that!

Every year, thousands of people claim to have close encounters with life-forms from a different galaxy. These experiences range from UFO sightings to the most serious type of alien encounter: intergalactic extraterrestrial abduction. The question is - if they are out there... how can you make sure you're protected?

In February, the Ministry of Defence released files detailing hundreds of UFO sightings across the UK. In response, Swinton have created Extra Terrestrial Encounters Protection.

This could give you the peace-of-mind of knowing you're covered for close encounters of any kind - from getting jelly legs when you spot a flying saucer to providing for your family in the event of alien abduction. 
That was never a square ball!!

Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity
