Edible Roadkill


Get your chops around this. Roadkill gummy sweets. I haven't tried them yet, but I've been assured they come in all different flavours: badger flavour, vole flavour, squirrel flavour.

Dragons Den Epitaph


I've been quite busy since the Dragon's Den appearance. Signing autographs for squirrels, doing seminars for badgers, and visiting ailing and injured hedgehogs in the A&E department. Even though I was only on for 98 seconds, I received quite a lot of attention. Not all of it from love-smitten voles. I've had a lot of people saying that they would have invested, if they were the Dragons. But ultimately, I didn't want any investment. I just wanted to honour Twitch and Grind's last wishes. To appear on the telly.

Roadkill Dragon


After my appearance on this week's Dragon's Den, I thought how about do a new Roadkill Teddy. The Roadkill Dragon. A run over baby dragon, with its fire-breathing guts coming out. See if Theo and Debra and the likes will buy that one.

Actually, the Dragons were really quite complimentary on the day. After pretending to have a sense of humour bypass, they each asked to take a teddy back with them.

I'd handwritten toe tags for each dragon. Once was run over by Theo Paphitis's Lear Jet, another by Peter Jones's Limo.

I can't stop laughing. Hilarious.

For all you drum n'bass fans out there. Never has a piece of drum n'bass music been used so well and to such effect before.

Roadkill Princess Di




I was interviewed by Jay Thomas on the eponymous show last night. (For those this side of the pond, Jay Thomas used to be in cheers.)

I thought my Roadkill Toys idea was warped, but it was nothing compared to the phone-in on the show. Hillbillies were ringing in with ideas for new Roadkill Products.

A Roadkill Princess Diana doll, Roadkill James Dean figure, Roadkill JFK figure!

I think I'll stick to cuddly toys.
