I think it looks better on the tunnel measuring vehicle.
Makes me happy I don't live near Sunderland any more (though I still follow the team) :)
Kate Miller-Heidke has one of those. Wore it performing at Eurovision. Headress that is, not tunnel measuring apparatus! And don't rib me why the Aussies are allowed to do Eurovision.

Reminds me of a Rod Stewart song - "Madame Onassis ain't got nothing on you" :)
Or even Sherlock Holmes. ;)

I saw this same picture on the internet the other day.
Somebody had replied "Sounds like a decent signing".
