He managed to obtain some "blue" movies..very risque in those days.He set up his projector,but had no screen.So he improvised, by pinning a white sheet over his window..
This was on a week when the site was full of Senior Citizens.
He started to watch his movie,only to be disturbed by noises outside on the lawn.
He went to the other window to investigate, and found a gathering of elderly gentlemen,all excitedly watching his naughty film,back projection,in his window
I wonder what it did for their blood pressure?
It was the Jack and Jill Competition for boys and girls, ages 2-5years.
Auntie Mollie was on the mic,asking the usual stuff..name etc..and what is your favourite toy?
On asking one,sweet little girl.the answer came back "my teddy bear"
Now..knowing that in this modern age,Teddy Bears were no long just soft toys, the "did stuff",she asked..".and what does your Teddy Bear do?"
Back came the answer,loud and clear."When you press his nose his balls fly round"
After Mollie had regained her composure,Aan trotted up to take their photoraph..Naughty Auntie Mollie said "Her comes Alan..shall we press his nose?"
After the competition,a very flustered Mother,brought the offending bear to show us.His nose was made of clear plastic,and contained coloured balls,which did,indeed fly round when the nose was pressed..
I avoid pressing Alans nose these days!!
Cheap and Cheerful? yes...but it was our pride and joy!
One morning, we went out to find there was a large dent in the bonnett..a mystery!
At that time we were developing and printing staff and guests own films.
We were in the darkroom a few days later,watching the pictures coming through the machines..when lo and behold..there was a picture of our car, with a rather large lady from the cafe dept., sat on the bonnet..Mystery solved!
Some years later, in the 1990`s in fact, we were sitting in the car, up by the pond, enjoying a cuppa from our flask (the queues in the cafe took up too much precious time),when there was a thud on the bonnet,..followed shortly by a second one.. Two ducks and landed there..and proceeded to......well what only ducks would wish to do!
Talk about a duck porno cabaret...........or, as the saying goes..**** a duck!
One Saturday morning, a guest parked his car,turned on the alarm, and left it.
This alarm howled all night, as the wind (of which there is a lot at Middleton) set it off as it was too sensitive.
The staff complained, and he was aked to turn it off, but he refused..so it howled all night, every night, for the entire week he was there.The staff got no sleep at all!Come the following Saturday, the guest went to the car park to collect his car, and found his pride and joy, very neatly parked...on its roof..
Must have been a really strong wind !!!
Dave Owen created one..He mowed, and rolled,and cut,and watered and tended that grass until,after a lot of hard work,a beautiful pitch was created
The day of the first match came...the match started, and Eric Bennett decided to wander down to the field to watch.As he got there, Dave was bowling! E.B(as we knew him) called him over.and told him that he should not be there..He should be working!and sent him off!! Shown the red card, after all that work..There`s gratitude for you..Keen cricketer Dave was p...d off!
