For A Number Of Evenings I Have Been Watching Harry Potter Movies,

one line I remember was from,

Arthur Weasley in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets,

'now, Harry you must know all about Muggles, tell me, what exactly is the function of a rubber duck?', 

I bet the answer was nothing to do with one floating down the River Thames under Tower Bridge, but that is what happened yesterday when an organisation called Jackpotjoy.com, decided to float the one they had made, it is part of a marketing campaign to grant funds to people who have good ideas to make people laugh, former Carry On and EastEnders actress Barbara Windsor, who saw the duck off at West India Dock is patron of Jackpotjoy.com's new Facebook FUNdation, She said: 'We thought a giant rubber duck floating down the River Thames was a great way to kick the FUNdation off, and it definitely raised a smile and a chuckle from everyone who saw it,

Michael Saunders, managing director of Jackpotjoy.com, said: 'We want to make sure we get the laughter quota back where it belongs and are hoping the FUNdation will help people have some daft fun, if you want to organise the biggest ever street conga, or jump into a pool of jelly, let us know.'
