Gardeners Rest #15 (2020)

[Snoop Puss]

"Good grief", she exclaimed as she caught sight of Rary and Snadger cowering before the jelly.

What should she do? Aim the hose at the jelly or would that just make matters worse?

"Duck!", she shouted at the pair. Who were so confused by the turn of events they started scanning the ceiling for waterfowl.

"Run!", she shouted, realising a more straightforward command would be more likely to draw a response. "Men!", she thought to herself... And then tutted to herself for even thinking the thought.

Rary and Snadger tripped over their costume bottoms and stumbled as best they could towards the Tardis.

With great gusto, MH and Lumpy aimed their weapons at the jelly, but just as they were about to blast it...

....Hector the giant scooped the whole lot up in one hand and swallowed it. Problem sorted, he said, with a loud burp. I could do with a large drink to take away the taste and.....

[Nicos]

“Oi you!!!” Called Bren to Hector...That’s my porridge spurtle you’re using!!!!!

Sucking his teeth he said - well it’s done the trick...and passed it back to a horrified looking Bren....

[Snoop Puss]

Though it was hard to decide which was more horrifying, the sight of the chewed-up spurtle or Rary and Snadger tugging at their costume bottoms.

"Never wearing that again", huffed Rary.

"Not on your nelly", agreed Snadger. "Oh, sorry, Lumpy..."

Lumpy, who was feeling thwarted at missing the opportunity of a lifetime to blast a jelly, made her way to the bar, where Burnie had gone back to lining up drinks. "Three for them, one down the hatch for me", she heard him say.

"What'll you have, Bren?", she asked, hoping to cheer Bren up. But Bren was distracted, looking at...

[Nicos]

...Flo , who had suddenly.....

[Lumpy]

Appeared in a flapper costume from the 1930’s.
All glittery with feathers which enhanced her world famous legs in a mysterious cloud of.....

[greenishfing]

What looked suspiciously like candy floss.

[Snoop Puss]

"Is that pudding?", asked Hector in disbelief, food ever on his mind.

[Nicos]

... oh yes said Flo...skirting around the dance floor with BillB. ....(How on earth did she manage to persuade him to come to the GR? .....famous as he is???? )

Wow Flo....such moooooves eh? Who would have guessed ( apart from those world famous legs of course) that our Flo could do such amazing moves???...particularly the.....

[Snoop Puss]

Thai kickboxing move that sends BillB straight into the Tardis, where he smashes into the 'go' button...

[Nicos]

...bzzzzzz.....weeeeee...zeeeeee...krrrrrrr.............

[Lumpy]

and Bill and the Tardis vanished into the past/future etc all at the same time.
Flo was left balancing Rary’s.....

[Snoop Puss]

Costume bottom on her knee...

[Nicos]

..which was pretty tricky as she was also trying to balance her best China cup of brandy laced tea, some mince pies, a feather boa someone had dropped and a rather strange looking....
