This is a question Look! It's me in the Local Paper

Most local papers will print any old rubbish. Far, far too many years ago I got into the Windsor, Slough and Eton Express after winning a fancy-dressed-bicycle competition. What they neglected to mention was that I was the only entrant.

What sad stuff have you been in your local rag for doing? Scan stuff in and show us if you can.

'Sultry Sally'
My mum was in the local Basildon paper when she was about 16 after they printed some modelling photos of hers under the headline "Sultry Sally" and made constant references to her, er, sultryness.

She reckons the worst part wasn't the mocking from her mates, but rather several weeks after when they bought some chips and found them to be wrapped in the double page spread that the Sultry Sally article appeared on.
