All entries for April 2005

We have a winner

Ladies and Gentlemen…we have a winner

As you are all aware…Johnny Boy finally bit the bullet last night at around five to nine…after hanging on in there since Thursday…he was finally finished off by 'Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway'...which I can reliably say is "bollocks" (source from the Vatican)

But i can announce the winner of the Bashmore Pope Sweepstake is Mr Dan Lawrence
…come on down you have won the following…..

A lovely hamper of food

A lovely bottle of Blue Nun:

(Modelled by my lovely assistant Sister Edwina)

A spin in the Pope Mobile:

(Ooooh speedy)

And the prize only death could buy…Pope for a month…yes get a headstart on all the other wannabe Pope's taking control of one of the biggest religions on this Earth

So a big congratulations to Mr Lawrence…
And I'm also awarding a special commiseration prize to Mr Jack Howson…who did say April 1st…but i forgot…he wins a weekend camping trip…with the ever popular "Nuns With Guns"...a hunting holiday in an animal reserve of your choice

(Lovely ladies)

So thankyou to everyone who took part in this landmark occasion, and Dan you must let us know how you got on after your month.
But the fun doesn't end there…oh no
Think you could do a good job as pope?
Think it's pointless electing some 70 year old that'll just and go and die on us in a couple of years?
Well why not run for Pope yourself!
That's right, using the historical method of choosing a Pope, I'm throwing it open to all the Student's of Warwickshire…The process is age old, and the scripture is as follows…
"Innus Thirtius Wordus Or Lessus..Tellus Whyus You Shouldus Be Chosenus As Pope-us"

So get thinking folks…and til next time…
check yourself Don't Wreck yourself

Not Long To Go

Follow-up to The Bashmore Pope Sweepstake from The Land of the Bashmore

Yes that's right ladies and gentlemen…It's not some bad taste April Fools joke…the Pope is about to hop skip and a jump it out of here folks

And as everyone and I mean everyone in the media is aware; attention will be shifting to The Bashmore Pope Sweepstake to see who is going to claim the prize of a money cant buy…

• Pope For a Month


• A Ride in the Pope Mobile


• And a Hamper of food…containing a vintage bottle of Blue Nun (which I hear was the particular kind of lady that tickled ol' JP's fancy!)

Award ceremony to follow as soon as I get confirmation off Sky News…as soon as they stop News Flashing every chuffing bit of information they get
