Geoff Capes

On retiring from the life of a shot-putter and professional strong man, Geoff Capes went into business, opening a shop called Geoff’s Capes which sold only capes. This confused his fans and admirers, who might reasonably have expected it to sell keep-fit equipment, while the dedicated cape-buying public might not, equally reasonably, have identified capes with former shot-putter and professional strong man Geoff. The shop closed soon afterwards. Geoff Capes now breeds budgerigars and has won many awards for his recessive pieds.
