HELP I'm stuck for a Pun (1 Viewer)

[Jim]

This is the news story but I'm stuck for a Fun Pun to go with it. Can you think of one?

Eddie ‘the Eagle’ Edwards officially opens the Motorhome and Caravan Show 2017 at Birmingham’s NEC on 17 October. Michael ‘Eddie’ Edwards, who represented Great Britain in ski jumping during the 1988 Winter Olympics should feel at home: while no skiing is expected, the UK’s largest leisure vehicle show includes a display of iconic VW campervans. A VW camper conversion, bought for him by his father, was Eddie’s transport and bed for thousands of miles across Europe during his ski-jumping career.

“I’m really looking forward to opening the show,” says Eddie. “I travelled over 50,000 miles in my beige VW caravanette. It wasn’t super-fast, but I got there. It had an extendable roof and boiling my kettle on the stove helped me keep warm in the mountains at minus 20 degrees!”

Amazing how you can do so well without actually wining anything

I was told his plastering wasn't up to much either

If you've not seen the film do so ... despite him not winning any medals he had been a potential Olympic skiing contender originally and had the determination to get to the games one way or another. He won the hearts of a nation, and a lot of respect from those at the games too, a 'priceless prize' not many get.

As for Jim's dilemma ... how about:

"Eagle gets his talons into the NEC's Motorhome and Caravan Show"

"Play 'spot the birdy' at the NEC's Motorhome and Caravan Show"

"Spread 'Eagle' news at NEC's Motorhome and Caravan Show"

The Eagle Has Landed !?
