 Posted: Thu Oct 14, 2010 2:32 pm Post subject: Fact: Mr Richard Herring is Aware of Speeding! |
 |
|
 Stand-up comedian Richard Herring seems to have taken research for his live shows 'As It Occurs To Me' (AIOTM) a step too far and is currently sat in Ipswich for a Speed Awareness course. His twitter updates today have been:
"On the way to Ipswich for my speed awareness course. Hopefully be AIOTM (AIOTM) gold! Might just be a boring wasted day!"
"Not gonna tell anyone but I am already aware of the existence of speed. I should pass this easily."
"Arrived at AA offices on the outskirts of Ipswich. My fellow criminals arriving. My favourite is a 70 year old grandma. Speedking!"
"I wish I still had my Hitler Moustache. That would freak my fellow criminals out!"
"Good way to discover that amongst a randomish cross section of UK public, no one knows who I am!"
Personally I don't quite buy the idea of him speeding simply as research for a show and, as such, we would like to offer Mr Herring a free subscription to the finest Speed Camera database available. All you need to do is email us at cameras@pocketgpsworld.com and prove who you are - hopefully, then, you won't need to continue with the license-endorsement dodging antics in order to write your regular shows!

How do you know that rkherring (latest member as of 10.04pm) is the real Mr Richard Herring. Did he have to e-mail you a joke?

No wonder MoneyPenny didn't get anywhere with Bond, she was using the wrong code words!
