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.

backwater paper extraordinaire
The Avondhu - a local paper for local people, serving north county Cork...
Apparently after winning last year's all-irleand hurling final, I was one of the 50,000 or so cork fans who ran through police onto the pitch to celebrate. One of the most local papers you can imagine printed a front page crowd shot which I'm told might as well have been titled Mike, And Some Other People.
Now this paper is so small that local politicians advertise in it under the fantastic slogan of "Peace, Justice, and a third Car-Park For Fermoy"...
But if anyone could source me a decent copy of the front page I'd be eternally grateful... :)
