Errr, OK

Not sure what to make of this...

THE ELECTION GROUNDHOGS ARE UP FOR SALE!

Gordon and Granita the Groundhogs have worked with the Conservative Party during the 2005 General Election Campaign. Named after Gordon Brown and Granita, the famous restaurant that Tony and Gordon dined at in 1994, the groundhogs have worked tirelessly with the Party for the whole campaign.

This is a great opportunity to own a piece of election history. Gordon and Granita came out of hibernation in February and remained with the campaign until polling day.

They "come complete with a certificate of authenticity signed by Michael Howard and Lynton Crosby", apparently. It's not really the same as the snow leopard I adopted as a child.

Said 2005 ephemera can be bid for here, though clearly the email plea suggests that there's not been many takers so far. Still, Lynton's autograph hey? Phwoar!
