Tycoon - Balls of paper mache

June 21, 2007

I’ve waited with bated breath for the launch of Tycoon the series on ITV that see’s would be tycoon’s pick up some cash from entrepeneur Peter Jones to develop their ideas.

He is apparently on a mission to find the UK’s next tycoon …

So far it seems like a search far from over.

But he appears to have found a very strong contenter for the award of “Most lame assed idea of the century since the head mounted toilet roll holder” in the shape of Justin.

Brain or Balls of Paper Mache ?

Best ask your wife … again

How this got past the brainstoming session in the pub I will never know. Basically he’s trying to solve a real problem - the waste of supermarket carrier bags with a solution that is neither needed nor environmentally friendly.

He is going to try and sell a bag like device that you hang on your shopping trolley bag which holds your old carrier bags so you can re-use them at the checkout.

Errr … Whats wrong with the tried and tested method of putting them inside another carrier bag ?

At the moment my money is on the ladies with the SOD men gardening company winning but I guess anything could happen - Apart from the fruit / vodka drink lady being able to move mountains that is.
