Sorry it has to be in parts but there was SO much going on and I have to try and order it in my mind. I didn't make notes so here goes -
GUATEMALA 2008. Part 1
T’was the first afternoon of the Fest
In their badges and shirts the Togs dressed
But Sir Terry got stuck
At the back of a truck
So on with the jollies we pressed.
Rev Roger Royle perched on the Segué
Said to Barry ‘ I’ve tried every which way,
So hard to exceed
Deadly’s intake of mead.
I’m afraid I’m not making much headway.’
Boggy, pointing a bling bedecked finger
At Rangatang’s well dressed lead singer
With a meaningful sigh,
Said to Janet nearby
‘May I pleathe have a leopardthkin thpinnaker?’
Nat West with his lovely mum, Emma,
Told us all in a voice with a tremor
He was down in the mouth
Cos his luggage went South
And it wouldn’t be back till September
So some Togs, on a quest to buy Snickers
Went to Asda and bought him some knickers
Which Sir Tel autographed
Once again our Nat laughed
After swilling down several liquors
As the drinks began taking their tolls
The knickers took on different roles.
Worn on his brow, low
Like a Paris chapeau
With his ears sticking out of the holes.
At the fancy dress party that night
What a wonderfully colourful sight
Of deep purple and rose –
(That was just Deadly’s nose)
As the evening awoke and took flight.
Ten Dons was just one of the themes
And Year Ten was a fetishist’s dream
Murph and Ives in their splendour
Did their gender bender
And blew us apart at the seams
A Flamenco dancer was shy
As some Mexican bandits passed by.
With some hair on his lip,
Our Mahatt took a sip
Of Tequila strapped on to his thigh.
There were so many costumes that night
But the Crinklies got everything right.
Rainbow Bug and Carruthers
Confounded the others
And scooped up the prize without fight.
In the dining room, a strange phenomenon!
Rich N Famous looked normal, don’t get me wrong
But his dietary bent
Was a little eccent –ric
His digestive system was put upon.
On his toast, he liked Marmite with marmalade
While the eggs that the free ranging chicks had laid
Were smothered in liquorice
To Rich, this was total bliss
Well worth a culinary accolade.
If you listened, you’d hear our Rich chirrup
On his hobby horse, foot in the stirrup
Extolling the highs
Of a nice bowl of rice
Or some pasta with Tate and Lyle’s syrup
Carrie Oke, his wife, missed the dance
Telling all that she broke down in France
But in truth I would say
She had stayed out the way
Just to give her poor stomach a chance.
More on the way but I'm so..o..o tired xx
