Two men were found with kinder eggs filled with drugs up their bums as they tried to get into Creamfields. Marshall Maddock and Harry Hewitson were about to enter the north gate of the festival site before a drugs dog indicated to police that the pair may have illegal drugs.

When both were taken to a nearby area to be searched by officers, Maddock handed over a small quantity of drugs but refused to be searched further. Because of his refusal, an intimate search was conducted where officers found a kinder egg containing 10 bags of ketamine in his anus.

Hewitson also refused to be searched, claiming he didn't have any drugs, but when officers searched him he was also found to have a kinder egg with 10 bags of ketamine inside hidden in his anus. Appearing at Chester Crown Court, on Friday, October 4, the pair were handed sentences totalling 36 months in prison.

I think this is headline is improved if you read 'Men' in the same way that Tolkien ment it. Makes it sound like it's a cultural thing rather than just the ol' prison pocket.

It would explain why all the Elves buggered off - they'd just had enough of our nonsense.

Surely they just mean the yellow plastic part that normally holds the toy, not the entire chocolate?

You'd hope they don't look like the brightest of sparks.
