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.

Not Many Column Inches
When I was in my first or second year of primary school, the whole school was photographed in the local paper as part of the school's anniversary. It's funny to look back at the photo now.

A few years ago the web design company I worked for got me and two designers in the Liverpool Echo over a site we had done for a Japanese games company. They made me redundant a year later, cnuts. Still, one of the designers (a good friend) was that p1ssed off with the company for doing that (and with the company in general) he eventually left. Yesterday, I received some spam email from the aforementioned Japanaese games web site and it looked like a dog's breakfast. Either they've lost the contract to do the web site, or they've never managed to get a decent designer to carry on with the web site. Ha har.
