Smile Can Scoobynet help?

Hi Scoobynet

I have a small favour to ask.

After all the bad luck I've had recently (Scoob hit in a car park, Gearbox blow up and now head gasket gone! ) I have finally had a touch of good news.

I live in Northants and entered a competition on Northants 96 to live in a car for 5 days with 4 other people to win a holiday to Florida. I have been lucky enough to get into "the Car" and will spend next week in a car of unknown size with four unknown people (only now am I starting to realise what I have let myself in for).

I'm only doing this to try and win the holiday for my newly married sister. She got married last Saturday and has not been able to afford a honeymoon and a two week holiday to Florida for her and her husband and my niece and nephew would be great. It also includes a 5 day pass to Disney and my niece and nephew (Ellie 7 and William 4) would absolutley love it.

So trying to unfairly influence the competition wouldn't be fair so I just thought I bring it to your attention so hopefully you'll listen and vote for me.

For more info you can have a look at musicradio.com

Thanks for reading this

That would probably help wouldn't it! Well I must be pretty daft in the head to be doing this!

My name is Adrian Middleton (Ade)

You will prob all be crammed into an old size mini.
If you want to win, just try and fart as often as you can, try and stink the other people out, burp and fart loads, they will soon bail out of the car leaving you the winner!
Sorted.

I didn't even know that was there! but thanks for the links.

For those who know me the burping and farting won't be a problem. I just don't want it to work against me when all the other contestants plead with the listeners to get me out before they all die

Very admirable of you etc ...... but may I ask why your sister's husband isn't putting himself through the discomfort for his new bride etc..... rather than you who is obviously a very caring brother

I dont think either of them know about the competition and I was hoping to surprise them (though I'm not sure how long it'll take until they find out).

Thanks for the support I just hope I can make it through.

Will your name not be getting mentioned on the station every 5 minutes...?

Well, when they find out Im sure they'll be made up! Nice gesture.

Is that a halo I can see?

I recommend prunes, powdered sulphur and a packet of Exlax. One explosive episode of diarrhea in that car and the holiday is as good as won!

Ahhhhh ... but you get a 5min toilet break every hour..as long as only one contestant goeas at a time..... maybe ajm means stitch the others up with Exlax

It works both ways, either you spike the others with the ingredients above which are all laxatives, or you take them yourself and perform a "whirly squirt" operation in the car, after which no one is going to want to remain in there with you.

Drastic? Yes!... but how bad do you want to win!?

I'll have to check the rules as to whether I can get away with the whirly squirt or if it comes under actual cruelty to other contestants.

That's one of the bad points.. Bread and water!!!

But the challenges that you are set can earn you food and you can try and blag some whenever you are talking on air

I might become very good friends with Domino's

I'm not going to be on-line now until after I've done this challenge.

So hopefully friday night but could be Tuesday if it all goes wrong.....

Would someone be kind enough to keep this somewhere on the first page?

Thankyou very much
