I thought this was going to be about Jordan's clunge.

I'd die laughing if that turned up in the post

I'd keep it too if only to stop the bd dog from stealing it

Would a range of novelty slippers modelled on novelty slappers undercarriages sell, do you think?

I was looking forward to a novelty slipper story.

How very odd.

The Telegraph's internal search engine still references that link, but the page itself has gone.

Conspiracy nuts would conclude that the Telegraph's content management gubbins is having a hiccup, but I prefer the simple explanation that the monster slipper turns out to be sentient, and very, very hungry - and that the article has been suppressed to conceal the fact it is now rampaging about eating people.

So the earlier poster was right when he assumed it was about Jordans clunge?

IT'S A CONSPIRACY!

"A man orders a size 14.5 slipper for his unusually large foot and receives a 1,450 instead after a 'translation' error. The hilarious picture story was reported by the Times, Telegraph and Daily Mail. But is it true? Polly Curtis finds out."

The postman would die trying to deliver it.......

Did anybody really believe this was true? No, honestly... :/

A very good PR stunt by the company that sells these slippers methinks.
