"Can I be a judge today, Mrs Go-4it? Can I be a judge today, please?", wheedled Snoop, bouncing up and down, the only exercise she'd be doing today thank you. In fact, she wouldn't even be watching the exercise sessions. Having seen Fireman Sam in his lycra, she knew watching him puff and pant would be enough to put her off at least two festive specials she could think of (unspecified for decorum's sake and what with her being a mod and having to set a good example and all) for life.

"Finally", thought Snoop. "I'll get a mince pie, at last. Just as well I only had a tea for breakfast, make sure I've got room for one, perhaps two if I'm lucky."
Perhaps she should visit the GR's library and see if she could find a good book to keep herself occupied till lunch. The stairs creaked underfoot as she made her way up to where she thought the library might be. As she pushed open a heavy door that looked promising, out rushed...

…. Jay22 dressed as Elsa from Frozen.
Looking very red in the face she explained that the she’d managed to get her rather stunning long, sparkly skirt tangled up in the barre and ended up upside down with legs akimbo. Not something she was particularly proud of as she was still wearing her Bridget Jones granny pants
Totally humiliated she’d rushed to the one room which was void of people…Last edited by Nicos; Yesterday, 12:32 PM."Nicos, Queen of Gooooogle" and... GYO's own Miss Marple

“Come on” said Snoop, gently dabbing her cheeks
“ Let’s go and see if there are any mince pies ready in the kitchen!…a couple of those and a tot of Flo’s favourite brandy should make you feel so much better. And anyway, I’m guessing people won’t have noticed as you were standing at the back and all eyes would have been on the instructor”
Heading to the kitchen they passed by the Christmas Fairy….and yes!…she really did wink…….

The plates of mince pies made by the contestants were cool. They were ceremoniously carried into the lounge to be judged, critiqued and eaten.
Snoop was at the front of the queue, unsurprisingly. She couldn't wait. She sneaked one off a plate and attempted to take a large bite.
"Aaarrrrgggghhhh!!!! She put the mince pie down and held her mouth. "These must be made of rock."
Mrs Go-4it came to investigate. "Actually I think it's concrete or something similar. Feel them, they're all the same".
It was true. Every mince pie was tooth breakingly hard. Somebody had obviously sabotaged the communal flour. Mr Bourbon and Mrs Bell would have been the obvious suspects, but their pies were also affected, and Mrs Bell was in tears.
Send for the police, insisted Mrs Bell........

Suddenly…out of apparently no-where …was a bright flash of light and a glittering of urrrmmmm glitter…. And an intense scent of mince pies had filled the room…..
Everyone’s teeth were suddenly sparkly and fixed and the mince pies had become edible!
Sat at the top of the tree was the grinning fairy- winking away at Snoop, mince pie in hand ( the fairy, not Snoop!)

"Well you never will", said the fairy. In a tone that seemed a little bit menacing.
"Never will what?" asked Snoop.
"Well you'll never get this mince pie unless you show a bit more gumption and catch it when I throw it down to you", replied the fairy, as she launched the mince pie into the air.
Nicos, who definitely had more gumption than Snoop, made a catch worthy of an England cricketer and shouted "howzat?"
She was applauded for a her spirit and technique by all, who decided a nice cup of tea might be in order to celebrate the mince pies - it was determined that nobody had won except Nicos - and the fantastic, instant, painless dentistry. And for now, they just took the winking fairy in their stride, just one of the many enduring magnificent mysteries of the GR. All the same, thank goodness for the new management.

Miz Spelling heard that,we will have no one person having an unfair advantage,bridges or not,and handycap,he used to be a cartoon in the paper,many years ago,and if Nicos thinks the fairy has powers that special,then think again,the smellis the fact that i forsaw the out come,and got Mrs Go-4it to order some frech from gordon ramsays shop,just so as not to dissapoint our taste buds,with that the cheff put a large plate full onto the bar for eveyone,the next thig every saw was the flash off Snoops arm,by ekshe is one fast cookiesigpicAnother nutter ,wife,mother, nan and nanan,love my growing places,seed collection and sharing,also one of these
