Well since it was endorsed by a President 🤣 Surprised Terry didn't rock up to photo bomb it an all @Blackcats 😁
My memory of that competition is hazy what with the much more recent being crowned winners of the highly prestigious Emirates Cup 😘https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6466032/an-in-between-phase/p1

Saw a couple of men dressed as potatoes.
Must win the lottery soon, I love this area.
Also saw my mum and carried her bag back for her. Even though she wasn't dressed as a potato.
