The latest issue might feature the best personal ad yet, though.

A particularly nosy grandparent has submitted an ad looking for a wife for his/her 25-year-old grandson. We’re told that the young man in question is handsome and clever with a good sense of humour, and is seeking a moral, loving wife.
