Good luck with your writing this week. Just added a bit of feedback on a few oneliners including your birds one - see the other thread https://www.comedy.co.uk/forums/post/1226469/
Hi there Dantrobus, thanks for this... I was not criticising the lack of feedback from others. Just did not want to raise hopes on quality feedback as I was the main one doing it at the time! Your feedback is great.
I haven't any rejects to post but felt like the rejects up there were sitting there with little attention so I had a read of them.

Hiya, here are my two gags for yesterday's Newsjack. I'm still learning the ropes, no pressure.
Sri Lanka says it is sending 21 containers of recycled waste back to the UK after they were found to contain hazardous material. It was returned to the sender, head of policy at 10 Downing Street.
One hundred million UK birds are now in Lockdown and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds have imposed a 10pm Curlew to stop the spread of Coronavirus.
Number 1 ...possible tweak...Sri Lanka's sending 21 containers of hazardous waste back to the UK as they were found to contain hazardous material. The containers were labelled 'return to sender, head of policy, 10 Downing Street '.
As Danrobus said in the rejects section, good to use a real story or hook the birds thing on to a real story in some way.
