Pope Benedict will soon be arriving in the UK. I am surprised at the lack of tacky Papal souvenirs for sale on the streets of Britain. Past Papal visits in other countries have produced such wonders as this Pope Soap on Rope
So in the spirit of his arrival, I offer you simple instructions on how to make your very own Pope Hat. Any newspaper will do, but I prefer to use the News of the World. There’s a link at the top of my blog page that will take you to a pdf version of this. Print it out and freak your friends out at the office, on the street, on the underground. Just a little fun arts and crafts for those with slightly twisted minds.
No offence intended! I did promise some funny blogs……….

lack of tacky gifts?
there are over 80 lines officially being sold by the church,
my favourite unofficial one was the benedictafone! could come in handy for recording clerical abuse.
