Man makes DIY stamps featuring his own face and sends letters for free all over the world (which Royal Mail failed to notice for three years)
 
An architect has been sending letters for free using DIY stamps featuring his own face.
Angus McDonagh, 64, claims he has duped Royal Mail with over a hundred of his bizarre designs on letters which have been posted all over the world.
Many have his own face where the Queen’s traditional side profile would sit - complete with a comic eye patch or curious hat.
At Christmas he created some of himself with a white Santa beard while others have used family photos.

What about this one today on www.newsbeatuk.co.uk apparently Leicester is going to be used as a test ground for a new government policy regarding school uniform. What do you all think of this?

 

There is also a change.org petition on the bottom of the article to Michael Gove.

 

The headline is 'Turbans to become standard dress in Leicester schools'

If you didn't have the feed to your twitter account next to it stating you're a comedy writer, you probably could've made it go viral.

To be fair if he wanted it to go viral and cause mock outrage he probably shouldn't put that he is a comedy writer in the about Newsbeat bit, and maybe make it look like an actual news website rather than a blog.

You would be surprised how many people still fall for it. That's what makes it funny to be honest. As you Leicester fans have always been decent I thought I could share this with you and you'd appreciate the humour. That's a tough thing for a Tranmere fan to say, but hey 2001 is forgotten  ;) (I have to say one Tranmere fan thought it necessary to explain that it was a joke lol)
