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.

A few..Our local rag is brilliant, they will take just about any story. We've had a few in there, the best were a publicity one for my mates internet cafe, that said there was going to be an art exhibition by a french artist called Gus something-or-other, and the picture of him was just a photoshopped picture of our mate Ken.
We also fed them a series of bullshit about sightings of a 'big cat' in the car park of the local sainsburies.
The best though, was when me and my mate Dan set up a parody website of our local rags website, their website is midsussextimes.co.uk, we set up midsussextimes.net, with loads of stupid news stories, but we weren't even subtle with it, we just ripped their code off and changed the text. After about a week we got a cease and dissist letter, which we were bloody proud of!
