I've just been asked if I wrote the original post and so if I am responsible for the hoax?!!

I didn't create the post, when I wrote "in a moment of shameless publicity..." I meant I'd written to the OP asking him to change the name of his TV show to "Desperate Housewives of Nappy Valley" I wasn't implying it was me wot wrote the original post!
Sorry for any confusion.
That would have been v v sad of me!!!
