Veterinary surgeon Niall Taylor has signed a deal worth a reported £100 to become the new face of VetSurgeon.org.
As part of the deal, Niall will appear in magazine adverts for the community website in Veterinary Practice magazine. VetSurgeon publishers have so far not confirmed rumours that he will also be appearing on billboards alongside the M4, M1 and M25 motorways, and in TV ads after Coronation Street.
Niall said: "I'm donating my earnings from this contract to support our practice manager, Alyson Gough, who'll be running the London Marathon to raise money for SENSE, a charity which supports deafblind people. If any of my colleagues would like to join me in supporting this important cause, you can do so at: http://www.justgiving.com/Alyson-Gough
Niall replaces the outgoing face of VetSurgeon, Gillian Mostyn MRCVS. She said: "I've had a wonderful year. Being the face of VetSurgeon has opened so many doors for me. I wish Niall all the very best".

Is it just me, or was Gillian a bit less than sincere there? Was she perhaps the last to know?
Now at least we have someone who'll look just as at home on the Riviera as up a cow's bum at three o'clock on a sleeting February morning. I have goosebumps.
Arlo, just one minor criticism - in future, could you NOT photograph the model in front of his house? Gods know what kind of stalkers are going to show up now.
It's you, Martin.
I'm surprised you can't feel the heartfelt sincerity in Gillian's words enveloping you like a 100% Siberian goose down duvet.

Ahem, merely a temporary residence as I currently find myself between mansions. Actually I'm delighted to receive this personal accolade. The moment when Gillian lowered the tiara onto my brow then shook me warmly by the throat will be with me forever!

Oh, I thought that WAS a Mansion! sixteen of us in paper bag in t' middle o' road........
