Looking for a Christmas gift for a foodie in your life?
Look no further than Boots' online catalogue and their offer on Jamie Oliver's 2004 Calendar. Note the phrase 'Click to enlarge' under the strangely cropped photo. It is strangely apt. The strange cropping of the product shot is to disguise the true glory of the full picture on the calendar, which looks like this. Apparently, it was only when someone posted in another newsgroup that the alarm was raised with Boots' webmaster and the site was changed - though not before whoever managed to cache the original.
My thanks to Anne Jackson, one of the unbeatable crowd on the uk.food+drink.indian newsgroup, whose post alerted me.
