Ok so we are a third through this years bash,,,of note >>>
1)Swadlingcote Council broke contract with us,,,after threats of Court Action,,,we chickened out due to Councils in the UK creeping up each others back passage we new we could lose more than gain.
2)Four weekends cancelled due to the summer rain!!!! we were lucky to pick up other venue shows at short notice.
3)Return booking for the zibb at Hampton Court confirmed for this season.
4)Excavations at Silbury Hill,,,my idea of a laugh turned bad,,,got past security and planted a mer inside the Hill,,,,me arrested, not at all funny,,,no press,,,so no gain, but what a story if it had worked!!!!HAHAHA *** NT.
5)Blowdown at 12pm which went on till 3am at the Bromyard Gala,,,lost £3000 worth of gear to the storms including a 20ft Popup(EZ up)
6)At Reading this week then on to Weeting Country Show for the following,,,Im knackered.
7)Moved House (To the White Horse Vale)Smack in the middle of the season,,,,must be mad.

Well as you can see not much happens here on the UK show run !!!!!!

Ken

Haha...a Zibit IN Silbury Hill? haha you are a gem. You should have alerted me. I could of had press on it in a heart beat. Funny man.

Ken, you gotta tell us the whole story of the mer and the arrest.

Did it make the press at all ..... stragne bald guy arrested for trying to plant a mer in the Excavations at Silbury Hill. Did you get it back?

I am really suprised you didn't talk your way out of it? I hope you at least escaped from any restraints on the way to the nick!

Will not elaborate on the Silbury problem cos it all went tit up,,,never got to plant the Mer due to the very secure security.
Result was a stale mate,,,,,,nearly!!!! Funny how another crop circle appeared overnight,,,on the same night!!!A first (Crop circle in a silage field)Yes, this was a double attack planned, with a single success.

If any of you are in the Cherhill area, call into the Circle Café, rumours are ripe and guess who started them off hahaha,,, just think this humbug was planned over a pint at the Waggon and Horses over thirty years ago, has fooled the finest brains in the world, produced endless sightings and books, my small part with measure tape, broom handle and ball of string has brought me much inner laughter and kept the "Magic" alive in my life.
Having moved to the White Horse Vale there are now fresh fields to conquer,,,keep your eyes peeled and your mouths shut. Let the FUN begin.

Ken

WOW bud thanks for sharing! Or not sharing if you know what I mean.

:) WIll keep my eyes open!

Dave

And I will keep my mouth shut as well!

You didn't answer the question if you got out of your cuffs... or did you? I have real trouble translating you Brits and your slang.

Bloody americans ceoming over here ... nicking or lingo!

Or is the Café hosted int eh USA? *** Americans (anywya!)

You klnow I m onlyt joking - its just a generalisation based on your presidents .... and a few celebs.

You know we love you all!

My favortie Brit-Amercian joke is referring to us as the "colonies" or the "oh, there's something over there?"

We gave you all the plumbs,,,,even the Becks!!! Why? Cos we don't want them ok.

You gave us >>>> me (The result of a GI from the last war>>>you know, the one you all turned up late for!)
I have blood in MD,,Glen Burnie and Saverna Park.

As you get older the "Old Bill" don't put you in cuffs, just take your zimmer away and put your actions down to being senile!! So you complete this illusion by putting your false teeth in their tea cup, peeing yourself in their cell and passing huge ammounts of wind while in Court.

They then dismiss the case and send you on your way,,,,,me chuckling at the thought of all those PC`s mopping up the pee.

Ken

I live not too far from there. Drop me a line if you're ever going to come over for a visit; I'll buy you a beer. (We can cut up jackpots 'til it's room temperature for you)

Will do,,,the call of crab cakes on the Chesapeak Bay has returned!!

Ken

Ken GI

as in Genital Infection?

or do I missunderstand?

G.I. Joe, related to Ken from Barbie dolls? Hmmm... neither has genitalia, so the infection bit is lost. Here in the states, the cops LOVE putting anyone in cuffs. Especially old people, small black children and pregnant women in trailer parks.

Don't they just! They also seem to like using their persuaders - especialy when being filmed arresting balck teenagers.

Okay, again with the Brit slang.. 'persuader'? Is that anything like a nightstick? Cattle prod? I don't know... it's so confusing.

On another note, the GBP is now worth more than double the USD. That's right, it's $2 per pound (which incidentally is the going rate for American cheese). I should double my prices for you Brits (but I won't).

I love the cheese link!

Yes I meant night sticks - (ort batons as we call them over hear .... lets be honest if some one comes at you with one the are gong to persuade you pretty quickly to do as you are told ..... of course some buggers might not take that as enough and keep the beating going

Painted a Ding Dong on the Westbury White Horse on the way home, shame the rain washed the emulsion away cos I really wanted a pic of it. Made the local news, everyones up in arms and looking for the vandels!!!

Ken

With that much gray in your 'stash I'd have figured you would have outgrown such child-like acts... Good- on 'ya mate! We're only as old as we act...

Ring me up when you get in town... Stephon has the contact info...

I've got some connections on the Bay with crab catching equipment, West river, Mayo area. (NO, not that kind of crabs!... the ones with flippers) and maybe can help with somewhere to flop a bit further south...

Steve

Crabs have 'flippers'? What the hell have you been catching? (and worse...eating?)
Do these crabs balance colorful balls on their nose?
