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.

red nose day dragWhen I was in the 6th form, one comic relief day a bunch of us chaps decided to express our feminine sides by dressing up in drag for the day for charity. Although come to think of it, I can't actually remember raising any money. Ah well.
Anyway, we're off to the bakery at lunchtime to purchase cream buns and pasties and whatnot followed by some G&Ts in the pub when a car screeches to a halt next to us and out jumps one of the local paper's photographers. "Can I take your picture for the paper lads?" But of course. We pose around thinking we'll be on page 23 under the usual "Small boy has bike stolen" story.
I think nothing of it until I get into work on Saturday and see the 1/4 front page picture splashed across it with my ugly mug staring out in drag...
