A BLACKBURN pub has started a competition with a difference to celebrate the summer holiday season.

O'Neill's, on King William Street, is handing out specially-made O'Neill's postcards for customers to take away with them when they go abroad.

The winner of the competition will be the person who sends a postcard back from the most imaginative and bizarre location.

The will win a meal for two and a bottle of house wine.

Manager Derbuil McAlinden said: "Anyone who is swapping their sandals and sun lotion for something more unusual this summer should pop into our pub and collect a postcard before they jet off.

"The card we receive from the most unusual destination will win."

Anyone who feels they're about to take the biggest holiday risk since showing their passport photo to their friends should pop into the pub and collect a postcard no later than Saturday August 31.
