There’s no prize at stake – just the opportunity to prove you’re wittier than any other LDV reader …
Here’s newly elected Lib Dem mayor of Bedford Dave Hodgson with party leader Nick Clegg following the sensational Lib Dem victory in the mayoral by-election – but what do you imagine they might be thinking / saying? Photo: Mark Fitzpatrick.
The winner of last week’s caption competition (according to a judging panel of one: me) – Tabman, with a highly commended placing to Simon Titley.

‘Can you get a shot for the camera that includes Dave’s beard and sandals’
Clegg – If I grew a beard……
Nick “As I once told GQ magazine, I always put in a good performance in Beds.”
Henry Vann doing his best Nick Clegg lovechild impersonation
Ian Horner (the elderly Campaigns Officer in the background) is saying “Why the f**k has Clegg turned up, we could have been in the pub hours ago” 😉
Henry Vann: “Would it help my chances in 2010 if I grew a beard too?”
NC : And if you shaved off the beard you might win next time ….
Don’t worry about him: he’s with us – it’s just that he’s forgotten his rosette.
“I’ve already advised Dave against Pugin wallpaper for the mayor’s parlour.”
Clegg: ‘For goodness sake not the biscuit question again. I told you – I like Hobnobs, Dave likes Rich Tea and Henry here will just have a nice rusk’.
Bedford caption competition – “Hey, I’m atalking here…who dis guy wid no rosette?…He wid you, Henry?…Then go show him how he can support our new bypass.
“Are you going to tell him his flies are undone Henry or shall I?
Man on left: “Gordon’s aliiiiive??”
