    HOLD THAT don't anybody bother the busy firemen - I just realised that I have a couple of ladders in my stockings so I will tie them together and should be able to manage - just a mo .................. ouch that's pointy ........phew I'm down but I am very thirsty after all that excitement so where's the vodka - whisky - brandy - I'm not fussy - a drink's a drink

    Sorry I could not bring any provisions with me as I had to avoid extra weight or the balloons would not have carried me

    Good job it's windy today - I had a good backwind too so I've floated down to Brighton in record time and the balloons held out fine

    fat_cat_holding_ballons.gif

    Two problems, I had to let go of most of the balloons to land so I don't know how I am going to get home - is your nag up to carrying us both Katenut as you could drop me off at Wisbech on your way (?) to Yarmouth

    Second problem -I did not quite make it to land - I actually got caught up on the top of the Pavillion - yes, that's right have a look up and you can see me - Coo-ee :wave:it me, I'm up here - dial 999 and call the fire brigade - I need a man in a uniform ......... with a big .......... ladder ............ to get me down. Pleeeeeease don't tell BMF, else the firemen will never get up to save me - she will pinch them all !!!!!!!!!


    Of course you can hitch a lift 3dogs - we might have to wait for neddy to sober up first though, I last saw her with the drunken donkeys and she looked a bit crosseyed.

    Glad you've made it down - I was looking forwards to seeing some firemen though!
    Trying to jump back onto the moneysaving wagon .... :cool:
  • Seems to have been a mix-up everyone..........Katenuts got the horse, LFVs got the line of donkeys (anyone know the name for a group of donkeys?....... [EMAIL="http://wzeu.ask.com/r?t=p&d=eu&s=uk&c=a&l=dis&o=15527&sv=0a652910&ip=52158757&id=1001A4476505E9470F17EC439B581D9C&q=name+for+group+of+donkeys&p=1&qs=121&ac=112&g=5fafZYLmZKEofF&en=te&io=0&ep=&eo=&b=a002&bc=&br=&tp=d&ec=1&pt= Fun With Words: Collective Nouns&ex=tsrc=tled&url=&u=http://www.rinkworks.com/words/collective.shtml"]just looked[/EMAIL] it could be herd, drove or pace) I'll follow Katenut and 3dogs up the A1/A47 to make sure they get back OK.

    I hope there aren't any environmental rangers around. I don't think we'll get away with leaving chocolate/beetroot doo-doos on the beach.

    Maybe we could apply for Lottery Funding and make it into some sort of statue depicting the struggle between those that earn their living from the sea and those that just want to swim in it..........or maybe not..........I'll get the bucket and spade and start scooping.

    No NSD today, had to buy shoes and trainers for DSs today. DH also got them new footie kits :mad: but there was an instore catalogue which had 5% off replica kits starting from today, so that was actually quite MSE! :money:
    Life is knowing which bridges to burn and which bridges to build! :think:

    Ohhhh my head! It will take me at least a month to recover from the hangover I am going to have.....perhaps Spoon had better put me down for 30 NSDs in June???? In fact cancel June, let's go straight to July......June is definitely off, as off as PDD's out of date egg sarnies......now what is that stupid donkey doing? Put that tattooing needle down, Hubert...did you hear me? I said put it down .....get it away from me......OWWWWWW!

    Ok, hold on, i know it's here somewhere *rummages in rucksack muttering to self* I'm sure i packed it *hits hubert with spare pants as they come flying out of rucksack* Ah ha here it it.... produces disposable BBQ with a flourish!!

    Think it's time to soak up the alcohol, someone pass me the matches & it's burgers all round :drool:
    Don't worry if we run out, i washed the elephant poo off Spoons cow earlier, so anyone for a steak?!? (only if i can find Spoon a lift home mind, don't want to leave her stranded in Brighton :D)

    Now why is Hubert wandering round with a pair of pants on his head? they look strangely familiar, just like my spare pants in fact :huh:

    BMF where are yooooo? Put the tattoo man down & come & join the party!! _party_

    I'm heeeerrrrrreeeeee, I forgot that I had to say 3.2.1. Activate so me robot dragon refused to move for ruddy ages until I remembered the magic words! Then I got me ewok suit caught in his jaws and tore a blinking big hole in me bottoms (of me ewok pants, I ain't got two bottoms yet lol) so I had to turn around and get the hole fixed. Whilst I wasn't looking he ate all my jelly babies so no Jelly Baby Suicide cocktails for me now, shall just have to drink the vodka & peach scnapps. I saw a lot of locals looking very worried running from the direction of the beach when I arrived, saying something about mad people and donkeys pebble dashing the pier with strange looking poop and 3Dogs gave me a funny turn when she came sliding down the front of the Pavillion and now I'm trying to locate everyone. Coooeeee where are you all? I've got carrots for the donkeys, cheesy nibbles and a huge sack of smarties.

    Ooooo Cheers :) That's a barbie, I thought BMF had been distracting the firemen. Dragon now parked but he's sulking because he wanted to chase the donkey's will have to keep an eye on him, last time we took him out he let all the zebra's out at Blackpool Zoo so he could chase them, it was funny until they all turned round and started chasing him back! ::Passes out the nibbles::

    Just keep him away for the eleflumps bottom, if he gets any of the fallout from the brownies you may be slightly stuck for transport home!!!
