And Did Those Sheep In Ancient Time?
Oh dear. Another doomed tourism initiative has come our way. And this one's Cumbria-wide. Those geniuses at the Cumbria Tourist Board have decided to, like, get hip and happening with the young people. Yes, what Cumbria needs is its own mobile-phone ringtone .
Except this one's a cut-up of sheep over a drum machine baaing William Blake's 'Jerusalem'. Go on, go anddownload it yourself . The Women's Institute probably thinks this is dangerously edgy, radical stuff. We think it doesn't quite match the Geordie Tourist Board's Hadrian's Wall Gay Shopping Experience (sadly unavailable online), but then we're really quite jaded here in News-land.

I lOVE the pissed-off Nick picture!
Steady on . . that's supposed to be me looking charming & debonair for the ladies.
Oh no, you are much more agreeable than this picture lets on, Nick.
Isn't it a little ironic that the Lake District where this ringtone is presumably based has some of the worst mobile phone reception in the country and thus there ain't a hope in heck of someone actually triggering that ringtone when you're out on the fells?
Actually, how about playing this from a speaker hidden in the ground especially around the lower slopes of Windermere? That'll confuse those southerners! :)
