 …We had a competition!

This was to create the best caption/funniest line for the image below, and the prize……a fantastic ‘Duracell Daylite’ torch! WOW I hear you cry.

And so the winner is……………………………………………………………

Greig McCallum with the following entry;

“When Hugh Hefner said he was sending round a bunny, I expected someone taller. But you’ll do.”

A special mention and award for illiteracy also goes to Scott Deakin for this little gem!

“Dumb and Dummer”

Well done to both our winners – please go and collect your prizes.

So, Mr Hearn has asked for the confirmation of West Ham as the preferred tenant of the 2012 Olympic Stadium to be delayed as "Leyton Orient has been in existence for 130 years and by any stretch of the imagination we are the incumbent club.”

So, that’ll be the Leyton Orient who originally came from Clapton and moved to Leyton in 1937, only adopting the local name after the Second World War! Even then it only existed for about 20 years, as in 1966 they renamed themselves “Orient”. It wasn’t until 1987, and with pressure from the Leyton Orientear fanzine, that they reinstated the Leyton part of the club's name.

So, they’ve only actually been known as Leyton Orient for about 45 years out of the 130 years that our Barry refers to.

BTW: I do sympathise with Barry (as the gig should’ve gone to Tottenham Hotspur!)

In France last weekend and in the middle of a mountain we came across this lovely artisan goats cheese factory.  So cute, so French….. who could say no? 

You could even choose the goat (ours was Elizabeth) whose milk made the cheese you bought. 

Delicious, though we got some funny looks going through security at the airport with bags full of goats cheese.

So fresh, so natural, so good – even our lovely clients at Pret would approve!
