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.

A nice cup of tea
Aged around 12 our class was drafted in to serve lunch to the residents of the local old people's home. The local paper printed a full page spread of pictures, including me with a cheesy grin serving a pot of tea to some semile old biddy. Shame they spelt my name wrong and put the caption on the wrong picture.

Oh, and my gran got a halfpage story about her houseplant that survived 20 years being fed on only dregs of cold tea. It was a slow news day.
