No extras today please, milkman
POLITICIANS are only mildly more sexy than milkmen, it seems, with just 1.7 per cent of women confessing to fantasising about male MPs. Firemen ... blah ... soldiers ... businessmen ... doctors ... blah ... milkment ... footballers ... blah ... nurses ... maids ... air hostesses ... traffic wardens ... The survey, by Budget Van Insurance, also found that 40 per cent of people fantasised about pulling a celebrity.

Budget Van Insurance!!!!?????

We really are applying to the wrong people in academia ...
