Look! It's me in the Local PaperMost 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.

Local AND NationalI've appeared in the local paper a fair few times as a youngster - one for winning a trip to a local steam railway, another for appearing in part of a Victorian restoration event at school (it's an old primary school). Picture here
Said school also appeared in a Daily Mirror article when it was after cash to buy a new building, including a picture of me and my school chums. That same picture reappeared, photoshopped, a few months later but with John Major's head on the boy sitting next to me. That was quite a shock, I can tell you.
Me with the PM (I'm the black haired boy behind - I was so cute, whatever happened?)
