Caption Comp
Posted by Nicholas Gruen on Tuesday, July 19, 2011
I don’t know much about this picture except that it seems to be begging to have a caption competition about it. And here at Troppo, we’re never afraid of a challenge. Nothing is too serious to trivialise. So please supply us with a caption. The winner of the comp will be flown to pick up the Troppo Mercedes Sports which has been garaged in Paris where it has been a stunt double in a movie about Princess Di.
