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.

Well...About 5 years ago, I decided I wanted to be a translator in the forces. What better way to get experience than join the cadets? I thought to myself.
Well, I found my very camp, skinny self surrounded by butch, testorone-fuelled blokes, but decided to stick with it. I did the Ten Tors challenge later that year, and our Commanding Officer was so chuffed, he had the local rag run an article. Unfortunatly, it also included a picture of us...
I'm the one in the back-center, hunched over like some sort of cripple. Also, if you look closely, you'll notice I'm stroking my coporals shoulder...I don't think I would've got far in the forces.
