OZ +12: Scoop!

I'm going to publish this before The Sun publishes it, which makes it a proper journalistic scoop.

I've been avoiding the Olympics while I've been away, as I would have done had I been at home. However, it's been widely debated in the press and on the TV here how Team GB has managed to do so well.

Letters to the press have focussed on how we could only get so many golds because we are four countries put together as one and, if you take away the golds won by Welsh and Scottish athletes, we Whinging Poms haven't exactly set any kind of standard. Although, we have been third for the entire fortnight. On the last day, it transpires that we haven't even managed to come third properly...

Anyway, the fact that we have beaten Australia really has not gone down well. In the interests of harmonious Aussie/British relations, The Sun has decided to twist the kinfe and had a big lorry-poster knocked up and drove it round to various Sydney postcard locations. Here it is outside the Opera House...



The official photographer is in the foreground and I guarantee that you will see something very similar in The Sun tomorrow.

The driver actually had to get in and move the advert round the roundabout so we could get past in our sightseeing bus...



Please cut it out and save it for me...
