Cardiff to Host Bi-Annual Paperclip Racing Event

The legendary bi-annual Paperclip Formula One event is to be staged this summer at the Millenium Stadium.
In 2004, seventy-two people flocked to see the event in the 100,000 seater Maracana Stadium in Rio, Brazil.

The world paperclip racing champion, Umberto Flogolololovti of Peru, is planning to go for a record 17th championship this time around.
Speaking through an intepreter pigeon, Flogolololovti insists that his presence there is to maintain his extraordinary record.
"My first win was in 1974. I was 4 months old. Which is the same age as my poodle. I like to stroke sheep."

The bookmaker Bet Fred has stopped taking bets on Farquhar being the name of the interpretor pigeon.
The latest betting:
Farquhar 14-9358 Fav, Trevor 3-1, Dave 6-1, Parrot 6-1, Antonio Banderas's Pants 10-1, Puke 10-1, Nigel Mansell 10-1, Cucumber 15-1Sausage Beans and Mash 18-1, Giuseppe 20-1, 10110110101 50-1
