Bunhill: Foot in mouth

OCCASIONALLY, albeit less frequently than journalists tend to think, misprints can be quite funny. Consider the article in our esteemed contemporary, the Scarborough Evening News, asking readers if they can complete old advertisements like 'Murray Mint the too good to xxxxx mint.'

Another was for Pepsodent toothpaste, to which the snappy catch answer was: 'You'll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your feet with Pepsodent.'

PS: And yes, the answer is hurry, not harry.
