A lad has been granted lifetime access to Warehouse Project after he made his own forged pass to get into the club event for free this past weekend.
The homemade pass was shown by the chancer to security staff at Depot Mayfield ahead of the Adam Beyer Presents Drumcode event on Saturday, and it read: “This pass grants the holder lifetime access to WHP events and Parklife,” followed by the lad’s details and pass issue and expiry dates.
The end of the pass also told staff to “ensure name matches pass before granting entry.”
Despite it seeming to be a pretty genuine and “impressive” forged pass, Warehouse Project and Parklife co-founder Sacha Lord was quick to notice that something wasn’t quite right.
Taking to Twitter to share a picture of the pass and comically explain what happened, Mr Lord said: “A new one last night. Someone tried to get in, by making themselves a ‘Lifetime Access Pass to WHP and Parklife’.

“[It] caused a bit of confusion, but [it is] impressive.”
The tweet has been causing quite the stir since posting, going onto amass thousands of likes and retweets, and hundreds of comments from people praising the lad’s – named Ellis Hall – “superb” and “creative” effort for trying his luck.

Many also questioned whether or not it actually worked, and he managed to gain access.
Others questioned whether or not the pass could’ve actually been genuine, pointing out that passes of a similar nature have been offered as competition prizes previously – but Ellis responded, confirming it was “defo was not genuine”.
Hilariously, Ellis also quote tweeted Mr Lord’s tweet saying “Mum, I made it,” and his mum then replied too, calling him her “clever son”.

Although it is still unclear as to whether Ellis actually did gain access to the nightclub event, it appears that those he attended with confirmed he did, with one response to Gary Neville’s son George’s tweet saying: “Can confirm he did get in using this pass.”
Sacha Lord also brilliantly followed up on his initial tweet, saying that he managed to get in touch with the “little scoundrel”.
And surprisingly, he granted Ellis a lifetime pass for real this time.
“Just as an update, I’ve been in contact with the little scoundrel and have given him Lifetime Access for effort,” Mr Lord said.
“Funny genius.”

McDonald’s announces 2024 Christmas menu with new Cheesy McCrispy, Terry’s Chocolate Orange Pie, and more
Emily Sergeant
McDonald’s has unveiled its Christmas menu for 2024, and there’s lots of festive feasting to get stuck into.
It’s been a long time coming, but after several chains and fast food joints have already announced and launched their festive food and drink offerings for 2024 over the last few weeks, McDonald’s has finally joined the Christmas party, and there’s a bunch of new and returning fan favourites on the lineup to get those mouths watering.
We’re talking Cheese Melt Dippers, seasonal McFlurrys, limited-edition festive pies, and a cheesy twist on one of the chain’s most popular burgers.
New to the menu this year is the Cheesy McCrispy, which is a “levelled up” version of the McCripsy we all know and love, taking the classic crispy chicken fillet and all the trimmings, and combining it with two slices of cheese, and lashings of rich cheese sauce.
Other burgers on the lineup are the grand return of the Big Tasty and Big Tasty with Bacon, both made with a 100% beef patty, Emmental cheese, onions, juicy tomatoes, and topped off with a unique smoky-flavoured sauce nested in a freshly-toasted bun.
Also being thrown back into the mix this year are the Cheese Melt Dippers, which are the perfect festive feast accompaniment made with camembert and served with a rich tomato dip.
Happy Meals will also be taking on a special Grinch theme this year too.
Got yourself a bit of sweet tooth though? There’s two new tasty treats to choose from this year, alongside the return of the beloved Galaxy Caramel McFlurry.

If Galaxy Caramel isn’t your thing, then perhaps chocolate orange will be instead, as 2024 brings the introduction of the Terry’s Chocolate Orange McFlurry, with Terry’s Chocolate Orange mini segments and chocolate orange sauce swirled into the ice cream, and then there’s the Terry’s Chocolate Orange Pie.
This year, McDonald’s has combined its classic pie with everyone’s favourite zesty chocolate to create a crispy chocolate pastry filled with a Terry’s Chocolate Orange-flavoured ganache.
On the hot drinks front, you have a Galaxy Caramel Latte and a Galaxy Caramel Hot Chocolate to choose from.
The full McDonald’s 2024 Festive Menu will be available to tuck into from 20 November, and is expected to stick around until the new year.

Asda relaunches over 60s ‘winter warmer’ cafe deal with soup and unlimited hot drinks for £1
Emily Sergeant
Asda is bringing back its popular £1 ‘winter warmer’ cafe meal deal to support the over 60s during the colder months.
After it was sadly revealed that almost one in five elderly people claimed there were days when they didn’t speak to a single soul last Christmas, and that during the run up to the big day, 15% said they got used to not conversing with other people, Asda has decided to relaunch one of its most widely-praised cafe meal deals again this year.
To support those who need it most as the temperatures drop, the supermarket is, once again, offering all over 60s the chance to enjoy some hearty soup, a bread roll, and unlimited tea and coffees for just £1 in any of its cafes across the UK.
Back by popular demand, this year’s Winter Warmer initiative is bigger and better than ever, with three soup flavours to choose from.
With the offer now running until the end of 2024, Asda is aiming to transform its in store dining spaces into ‘Chatty Cafes’ – where senior citizens can come together under one roof, eat and drink, and make some new friends.
As well as its ‘Chatty Cafe’ offer, Asda colleagues will be also be donning ‘Happy to Chat’ badges throughout the festive season, checking in on older customers in store and when delivering home shopping orders, while the Asda Foundation will deliver £600k worth of grants to tackle loneliness amongst the elderly by boosting activities in the local communities, and funding Christmas celebrations.

“Christmas is a time to enjoy time with loved ones,” explained David Hills, who is the Chief Customer Officer at Asda, “and the fact one in 10 of our older generation is facing Christmas alone is genuinely sobering.
“That’s why we’re proud to invest almost £1 million through our in-store initiatives and grants to do what we can to tackle loneliness and isolation in the communities we serve.
“Our teams do incredible work to support communities all year round, and I’m so proud to be able to launch the Chatty Cafés initiative today, alongside our renowned Winter Warmers deal, which we know is a lifeline to many.”
