Roz Savage, athlete, hottie, rower and environmental advocate had a lucky escape just prior to setting off on her latest adventure. Many political figures, desperate to associate themselves with her voyage in an effort to make themselves appear to be virile go-getters, have queued up to offer kind words of support for her voyage across the Pacific Ocean. Including Gordon Brown.
"It took some fancy footwork" said Roz "but I managed to avoid having any contact with him in my preparation for the journey. The last thing I need is the curse of Jonah striking when I'm alone in the middle of the ocean."
"I've had to cancel meetings with charities, sneak away from photoshoot, and on more than one occasion run away with him pursuing me down the road. I've applied to the courts for an injunction but it's been held up for some reason."
Many sporting teams have regretted not turning down a visit from Gordon Brown although the effect is not confined to physical contact. A simple message of good luck can be enough to jinx a sporting endeavour. Wayne Rooney, David Beckham and Michael Owen all suffered career threatening injuries after Gordon 'bigged them up' in radio broadcasts.
For now though Roz is safe in the middle of the ocean. With the general election campaign in full swing Gordon has other, more pressing, issues to attend to than trying to grab his photo opportunity with her.
