TAKING THE MICK
Many, many thanks to those of you who entered the caravan competition. I have been overwhelmed by all the entries from far flung corners of the world. I didn't think so many people would admit to being caravan enthusiasts!
Congratulations to Terry Wiggins of Wigan, who has proved that he owns no less than twelve caravans! I wonder if he is related to Tracey Wiggins of Wigan, a former competition winner on this blog? I hope it's not a case of "keeping it in the family"!
Transporting the 15 foot Mick Hucknall is going to be difficult, but it will arrive at Mr Wiggins' home via helicopter. It'll probably look like a re-enactment of the opening scenes of the film La Dolce Vita, with people swarming the streets of Wigan hoping to get a better look!
Consolation to the runners up - Kyahgirl, whose 40 foot winnebago didn't really cut it as a true caravan, and Tom 909, who went as far as to invent a caravan because he wanted the glittering prize.
As recompense, they have both won a dream dinner date with Britain's top Mick Hucknall lookalike, pictured above. Fair enough, he looks more like the sort of bloke who'd come to the front door to tell you that the water is going to be off until at least tomorrow morning and there's nothing they can do about it and if you really have a problem with it ring the water board as they're just acting on orders, but he's a different man with a splash of aftershave, some hair product and a Burtons suit on.
Besides, I've got to pay for his travel expenses to Devon and Alberta, Canada. Do you think I'm made of money?
You can save the money and take yourself out to dinner instead Betty. Go on, it will be fun.
Now, tell us more about this dominatrix sideline?
we're all ears.
Kyahgirl - I haven't got time to "find a window" for Simply Mick in my busy diary. Life is one big party.
MJ - oh, it's all detailed on my "secret" blog which has a huge audience. I'm in talks with a top publisher at the moment so it's all very hush hush.
Mind you, my cat hoicks up gobbets of grass that are better looking than Mick Hucknall.
Garfer - http://www.toplookalikes.co.uk/mick-hucknall-lookalike.htm
Tim - He's also about 20 years younger than the real Mick by the look of it.
Truly harrowing.
: 8:21 pm : 1:09 amIt seems as if Mr Garfer is no longer with us in blogland as he disappeared about a month ago. Probably a good thing given the circumstances. Anyway, I've seen a picture of him somewhere. He looks like the Incredible Hulk.
By the way, ahem, are you the Mick Hucknall lookalike in the photo? Gulp. It's a small world ...
