Mr. Snuffles Returns.

Very good piece today by Andrew Marr. Go read.
For those who haven’t come across Mr. Snuffles before a small briefer. Marr works for the BBC and some time back there was an announcement that BBC reporters cannot write anything political for other outlets. As Marr writes on UK politics that causes his column some problems. Thus, occasionally, his column is taken over by his daughter’s guinea pig, Mr. Snuffles.

  1. A much pleasanter contract avoidance name than The Fluorescent Leech, but the underlying concept is the same and thus familiar.

  2. To read all about what Mr Snuffles says and what is said about Mr Snuffles, as well as signing our petition against the import of fat guines-pigs into Britain, visit http://www.mrsnuffles.com. You can also help Mr Snuffles by buying merchandise so Mr Marr can buy a big fat TURKEY for Christmas!

    It is now commonplace for soccer teams to have a mascot so at Watford FC we have Harry Hornet who entertains us before and during the match. Occasionally he is more entertaining than the football. When is Mr Snuffles being adopted…not necessarily by a Premier Division club so maybe my local team Forest Green Rovers here in Gloucestershire would like him. So far they have only won one league game this season so Mr Snuffles might change their luck. Of course Mr Snuffles would have to allow a human version to wear a Mr Snuffles kit…..and who better to entertain than his owner… one Andrew Marr.

  4. Just like to add that me and my housemates were to introduced to the legend that is Andrew Marr and now we are made to watch his reports in silence (which we don’t mind because they are ace, to be fair!)
