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.

« Go Back

Way way back, many centuries ago
in 1991, after a lot of physical testing, I was accepted on a canoe trip with the Yorkshire Schools Exploring Society. We were originally going to canoe Lake Titicaca on the Peru/Bolivia border, but due to unforseen circumstances (cholera epidemic), about 2 months before the trip it was changed to the Yukon River.
Anyway, as the Hull Daily Mail only ever has news about chavs and how shit Hull schools are, I made page 5. With a picture of me in a canoe and all my canoeing gear - in a fucking swimming pool!

Was also in the HDM a few times for trampolining.
Oh, and when my gran died I placed a bereavement ad.
