Peruvian Potential Pole of the Month

posted in: Foreign ones

Very excited to be nominated as Pole of the Month (P.O.T.M.) for October 2011, Maynard Floyd decided to have another crack.  This photo, from Maccupiccu*1, he readily admits is not a stunning pole,  but made him chuckle as he arrived into town following a gruelling four days climbing the Inca Trail.  There seems to be something of a theme with Maynard – holidaying in hot, exotic and sweaty places.  And if it’s not hot enough, then he climbs mountains until he is hot and sweaty.  There’s a winegum thing going on there too it seems.

Anyway, our esteemed P.O.T.M. Committee convenes with startling infrequency, and they will not be swayed by previous nominations, personal status or lobbying. They can however be persuaded with cash in brown envelopes left behind radiators etc.  Cheques too apparently*2.

Presently, they are retired to separate hotels across the country to consider the nomination for July 2014 POTM.  Their results will be published on these pages at some point prior to the next ice-age.

Here’s the pole, outside Gringo Bill’s Hotel.  Please cast your votes…. now!
