Last night saw us all involved in my 10 year old sons birthday party......All of the kids arrived and the girls sat nicely around the outside of the room whilst the boys charged straight in and systematically tried to beat the living daylights out of each other with balloons...a real eye opener!!! By the end of the night - the adults with a few helpings of wine, danced, danced and danced some more - on a concrete floor - NOT A GOOD IDEA when you have to get up early the next morning to continue painting the ribbon around town....In the UK, we had this thing in the 80's with The Gap Band called Ooops Up Side Your Head, and we thought it would be a hoot to teach the kids how to do it (click here to see a random You Tube clip) - well today, I can hardly bloody walk & I have dancing feet!!! Next week we have The Feelers in town so I'd better be right by then!
So the ribbon is complete throughout Princes Street in town - we've realised that if you want something done, ask an Ann or Annie - hehehe - with the exception of Nat, everyone was called either Ann or Annie, even the imports!!!!
BIG thank you once again to Dean Gittings who had us all lined up and ready to go by 10am - his assistance, yet again was invaluable!!
Once again Putaruru Rocks.... Richard & Sue Heslop from our local pharmacy baked us morning tea, Sid from K_Beez superette provided free soft drinks and the Bakehouse gave us free coffees and kept the kids fed for free - we were sooooo overwhelmed as we didn't expect any of that at all - so a big THANK YOU to you all....
PGG Wrightsons / AON Insurance have covered ALL of our Public Liability Insurance for Think Pink as sponsorship - Huge thanks to Heather Wood and the team at Hamilton who organised it all out of the blue for us....THANKS GUYS.....
More soon - I need to go dig out the foot spa........
