Oh dear dear dear, to those who made comments on my last post about my mispelling of Scott's name as scoot...well you clearly didn't know about my lead in to this post, the farewell party which had as it's first act "flying the flag" which as you all know was performed at the Eurovision by Scooter...and who played one of our Scooter roles....why our very own Scott....you should have more faith in me, even my seeming typos are nothing more than subtle links to future posts!!
The farewell party took place earlier tonight, and what a grand show was put on, unfortunately my camera battery died so I have no pix of the latter part so pleas e-mail me any you may have. Also as I was dragged into that first number I have none of it either so again please send those pix.
The scene was set for the host families to arrive, ballooons decored the chairs,
and the young people looked great
cake was served (you should all know by now about my dessert fetish),
and even dogs were allowed...well only cute 10 week old puppies like Bruce,
everyone...awwwwwwwwww
the show started with a rousing performance of national anthems,
then our competent pair of comperes took the floor
Adeva and Ben did us proud with their witty repartee,
Sadly the first act isn't recorded (yet) as I was dragged on stage...but I have to admit our version of Scooter was far from "null points"
Ryan performed a suitably off-beat rap act,
Zoe and Sara sung sweetly,
Morgan gave us a Japanese song, her voice was beautiful
Though there's no pleasing some of the audience...
come on boys...give us a smile!!!
Blaithin treaded on thin ice by performing part of my favourite musical "Blood Brothers"
...she did it proud, now I urge you all to see it.
Then there was the first of many drag acts...
I'm going to get shot for that!!!!! You were great ladies, it's a joke!!!!
Then it was time for the 23rd Annual Griffin Awards, where Frank recognises the great and the good...well actually he just touts on everyone!!!
at least he ahd the decency to present himself with one to start off, all about his deafness, and proclaiming his wife had been put down because of her broken foot,
Aimee was next victim,
last time she will think that corned beef is made from horses' skulls.
Mustapha was equally picked on,
and Brett has a hygiene issue,
just why does he shower so much???
Zoe and Aine got nabbed for sharing the Vaseline,
sorry girls that was me who shopped ya to Frank.
Then he started picking on me,
..so what if I don't like bugs...
...and as for them farting stories...
I've never been so humiliated in all my life, everyone knows Phyllis is the farter, you've seen her bum on the blog...but the air fresheners will come in handy whenever I give here a lift in my car!!!!
Ryan got doen for his huge guitar case,
Scott found his Daddy,
...well the American suspect!!!
Edwin got a flipping pancake award,
and Ben received a culinary recognition
Lauren and Phyllis got done for performing watersports in public places
Then Janelle got the award of the evening for her commitment to quitting smoking,
you go girl, and don't start again.
The entertainment went on with The Final Countdown
Scott and Katie dragged Bruce from the audience,
and the rocker showed what he's worth,
...you noticed I never used the adjectives "sad" or "old" before rocker!!
The Stephanie and Edwin showed how good improvisation should be done,
then my camera battery died...please help!!
Thanks everyone for making the evening go so well.
