Local funny man with a social conscience Martin Mullaney recently felt the long arm of the law whilst innocently cycling through downtown Kings Heath. Martin known throughout the land for his sterling community work, was on his way to Moseley to make things generally better.

In order to aid his good works he was obviously required to attach a large knife to the end of a broom handle. The police in Kings Heath long known for their almost Aryan efficiency, (unlike Moseley where they get to go home at four O’clock) were not going to let such a blatant breach of public safety go unchallenged.

When asked to justify his actions Martin did not aid his situation by shouting “No bastard copper is going to take me alive.” The local police realising a situation could develop calmed things down by throwing Mr Mullaney in the cells.

It was only through the intervention of the finest minds the Moseley Forum has to offer that his speedy release was secured. At the end of his ordeal a shattered Mr Mullaney’s only comment was “Bloody hell I feel like Terry Waite”.

We asked Mr Mullaney to comment on this turn of events he told us “Come to the Cheeky Monkey Comedy Club at the Hare and Hounds, it’s Moseley’s finest comedy club and it’s conveniently located in Kings Heath.”
