When I was a kid, me and my beavers group got into the local paper because we did something.

I’ve got no idea what we did, but we got printed and as a 7 year old that was pretty huge.

Life never got better.

Boring answer for me: I’m a local councillor and activist, so I’ve been in the paper more times than is strictly good for me. I’ve pointed at potholes and glowered at empty shops and stood freeze-framed in the act of handing over petitions and all the other classics.

The burden of local fame can be overwhelming.

Have you ever appeared on Angry People in Local Newspapers? That would be the true claim to fame!

Sadly not. The Male Political Haircuts Twitter account is a fan, though.
