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.

Overt Jubilation for Duck Race Winner
I was 14. I had been dragged to my local fun day, which included a duck race. And whadddaya know, I won. And it's true what they say about fame- the hacks descended upon me within seconds. A rather confused looking middle aged man, as it was. He asked me how I felt to have won. I said that it felt good, because I depended on it for sustenance, then walked off feeling ever so smart for sticking it to the press and pretending I was homeless. Yes, I was a.. whats the word... 'twattish' child.
Well I was in the paper, and he put my quote.
He also printed a picture of me collecting my book token.
TWAT.. TWAT... T W A T.
