Tales of everyday life in the coastal village of Amble Bay
Right. Lawns mowed, tables chairs and sunshades in place. The bouncy castle's inflated, but when I tried it just now I heard farty noises each time I landed so it may have a leak - at least, I think they came from the castle!
Ah, here you are! Welcome one and all to my home and our farewell picnic. Porky Pete’s here with his hog roast, and for those of a vegetarian persuasion, Charlotte has made some non-meaty treaties. I’ve made jelly trifle. Yum!
Hopefully, Arthur's going to recite some of his witty ditties, but when I saw him earlier he was looking a bit peaky. We’ll see. The Bustleton Brass Band are on their way to play a few diddly-om-pom-poms and Mick the Trick's going to perform magic - if he finds his props! He made them disappear at a kid's birthday party yesterday and he's not seen them since.
I think everyone’s here, but I can’t see much for all the smoke! ‘Are you all right in there Porky?’
By the way, Dapper Dan’s expecting you at the Fish Inn tonight. The first drink’s on the house, and local band the Urchins are treating us to a bit of heavy metal. Don’t worry, it’s not that heavy - more like tin foil really!
So, enjoy yourselves, but don't drink too much because we are meeting first thing tomorrow for coffee and a debrief before you leave!
