Footing The Bill

Footing The Bill

Imelda Marcos, the wife of Ferdinand Marcos, the former President of the Philippines who embezzled an estimated £5billion, is to sell off her infamous collection of shoes.

How many shoes? “It was not 3,000 pairs,” says Imelda “it was only 1,600.”

One for every day of the week.

In The Dog House

Wayne Rooney’s pet dog Daisy is an expensive luxury.

The Bichon Frise hairball has gnawed the footballer’s £10,000 leather sofa. And it gets worse for Rooney. His former manager at Everton, David Moyes, has issued a libel writ against the player.

Moyes is claiming an estimated £200,000 damages over remarks the player made in his book My Story So Far.

The case should make vital reading in La Roon’s next literary masterpiece.
