NAME MY ECO MAN!!

Take some chicken wire, lots of empty cans and plastic bottles, 12 kids from a youth club, bored in the summer hols, aged between 9 and 14, tell them to make a footballer and leave to boil for 6 - 50 minute sessions, then display tastefully and photograph!



All you have to do is give him a name!!
I will give you the name the kids came up with tomorrow!

From whence it came I know not, somewhere I'm not sure I want to go back to, but my first thought was Bottle-top Branston. Can't wait to hear what the bairns came up with. Nice post, Simon, made me smile!
