Driving his sheep home from Hempstead Meadow, Wilson saw this newspaper hoarding outside the newsagents. He immediately tied his sheep up outside the shop and went in to buy a copy. (He was a little surprised to be charged for the paper, what with having the Freedom of Uckfield etc, but paid up (almost) without argument.)
The paper carried a leader revealing that some of its readers are disappointed ('outraged' is the word they used) by the Mayor honouring Wilson. They have written angry letters pointing out that they contracted food poisoning after W's Haunted Mystery Tour, or had unfulfilled contracts for gardening work and landscaping projects.
W is a little bit brought down, and says he probably won't send cuttings of this to his mum, Mrs Vermilingua.
