A few cursory observations in advance of a more intrepid Paper Monitor later today.

Does Donald Trump really trump the competition when it comes to global comb-over recognition? The Times and Guardian seem to think so, both christening him the "world's most famous comb-over". Paper Monitor concedes that neither Neil Kinnock or Arthur Scargill, nor the great Bobby Charlton could rival Trump in the global fame stakes, but is there a better-known purveyor of the hinged head rug?

There's a similar display of journalistic intuition in Redtopsville with the Sun and Mirror preparing for the upcoming Rooney nuptials by running their own A-Z guides.

But while both agree that B is for butterflies (guests will each be given a box with a butterfly to release), E is for Elsie Lindsay (Coleen's personal trainer) and Y is for yacht (do you really to ask?), there is clearly need for some voice of authority here. Is A for Alder Hey (the Sun) or Abbey (Mirror)? Is C for cricket (Mirror) or champagne breakfasts (Sun)? And so on.
