Piddington 98.

On Site

A sudden gust of wind causes mayhem Working on site Far too quick Some reconstruction thing What's that in the grass
Mel's photos these. Only one site photo - well done! Interesting scene of devastation - much as the tent looks after Andy has rushed in for that last cup of tea. I hope that's not what I think it is in the grass there and that Suzie had nothing to do with it.

The Confederate Army stops by

Not quite the General Lee Confederate Mel Mel poses Confederate Mooner Avast Behind Take that
The fields of Pidd were thrust back into the turbulent times of mid-Nineteenth century America when a lost force of Confederate troops (oh OK just Mel and his rubber buttocks) rolled into camp. Mooning and commandeering everything in sight it took a major counter attack (yeah all right just Lee) to send them packing.

Too Weird even by Pidd Standards

Avoid these people I'm not joking stay away! Heffers Octoplus
Nuff said, know what I mean - Run, Run like you've never run before. Run as if your pants were filled with a hot Birmingham Balti. Don't look back, don't pause for breath. Git outta here man, Save yourself. Oh and this is hardly an episode of That's Life either

Action Man saves the Day

Abdul Al'Chamberlain Bert and Ernie Action Man prepares Action Man takes to the skies Action Man Parachutes in Action Man negotiates with the arab Look out bad guy here he comes Who's this? OK Bert reach for the skies Hey Bert my neck don't feel so good
Abdul Al'Chamberlain the thieving arab terrorist had hatched a cunning plot with the Piddington Mafioso - Fat Ernie and Bert "The Knife". Only one plastic man could foil their evil plan. With a little help from his support team he was off. Parachuting in he quickly negotiated a peaceful settlement with the arab in exchange for some carpet and a pair of curly slippers. THen it was off back to the skies to surprise the Mob. Clever disguises didn't fool him for a second and as soon a guns were drawn he was in. Chop - Chop his Martial Arts training had paid off and the crooks were hung out to dry.

No escape from Mel's Candid Camera

After a hard day... Scot surveys the mole damage Lee Shaving Simon Tommy-Knockers Disrobed
There is no photo too personal or disturbing that Mel will not take. Beware when you are carrying out your most intimate of personal tasks as Mel may be there hiding until CLICK too late it's all over and your captured on film for posterity.

The Yawning from My Awning Launch Party

Chris and I were only here for the middle weekend, just in time to catch the trip to the Charles Wells Brewery (possibly the coolest thing to happen to Pidd since the Marquee in '92) and the launch of the 1997 Tales From My Tent Flaps Bumper Book of Fun.
