A hot time in the Olde Countrie!
In the Evening Mail (Birmingham, UK), Marc Cowan shocks with It's the M6 doll road!:
A burning cargo of sex toys closed one of the country’s busiest sections of motorway and brought the Midlands to a standstill today.

Paraphernalia including whips, plastic breasts and dolls spilled from the wagon and onto the road as fire crews sought to make the lorry safe.
...
The bizarre cargo brought much-needed light relief to those working at the scene as one of the blow-up dolls was rescued from the charred wreckage.
