Will do ! Are you in the procession then? Embarrasingly I'm going to be on our school's float, I'm hoping that it won't rain.

Apparently, I'm grouped in with the Air Ambulance lot.

Weather should be good, so they say.

So is it acceptable to walk up to any random Wickes lorry driver and ask if they are Cock Womble ?

No. I'm sure they'll deny it.

Had a long, but very enjoyable day at the Carnival. We were right near the front and the guys from Keech (Children's Hospice) collected a shed-load of loot.

Also met Mrs BC wavey

I was there. Upon pulling out of Delapre Park, why was there such a huge gap between you and the advance party lead by the breakdown rig at the front?! My 5 year old had to wait ages for you to catch up, whilst dressed as an Owl. Oh, and I admire your clutch control at walking pace for that distance..

Because the breakdown rig and dance troup in front of us were quicker! I had 4 adults dressed as a fairy, Snow White, a dragon and a lion, and 3 young kids walking alongside me and had been asked to "slow down a bit" before we even got out of the park!
