PUDDING THROWING NUMBER ONE!

To support the Olympic Bid, the World Black Pudding Throwing Federation, yesterday, announced a competition to find the song that will spearhead the campaign.

Local musicians are hard at work penning a potential number one hit that will make the Olympic organisers sit up and listen!

Entries are welcome from all over the world (given our international appeal) and the winning song will be posted on this blog.

Closing date january 5th 2009. Entries to this e-mail address.

Considerable interest has already arisen, however both Paul McCartney and Elton John were unavailable for comment yesterday.

BLACK PUDDING THROWING FOR THE OLYMPICS


As the campaign gathers momentum to include Black Pudding Throwing as a demonstration sport at the 2010 London Olympics, and to celebrate the lesser-known sports of Great Britain in the opening ceremony, the World Black Pudding Throwing Federation has suggested that Team GB adopts a new logo (pictured). A spokesman said, 'This could be a great opportunity to showcase the real spirit of Great Britain, by celebrating regional diversity, I have a vision of black pudding throwers marching alongside gravy wrestlers, bog snorkelers, cheese rollers and even extreme ironers as the Olympic torch is lit!'. Sebastian Coe was yesterday unavailable for comment.
