Here’s the latest request on Manchester’s Freecycle group:

Subject: [manchesterfreecycle] WANTED: CAROL VORDERMAN: M5

I know this is a really bizarre request and will probably tax Freecycle to its limit but….

Does anyone have a Life Sized Cardboard Ex Shop Display Picture of Carol Vorderman, or something similar, going spare? Or even someone who looks like Carol Vorderman but must be wearing clothes!

Its for some work related challenge for a relative and at some point funds raised, if any, will go to some charities. So any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I am happy to travel anywhere within about 50 miles from Manchester so it does give some scope and hopefully increases the chance of success.

Let the fun begin!

I’ll keep you up-to-date with with the poster’s progress…
