Standards have been kept up after our final day’s haul – today it’s all very confectionery based. So far we have collected:
“Don’t touch my robot”
“Do you know where my laptop is? I think I would feel much better if I knew where it was.”
•3 x Tunnocks Caramel bars (pictured above)
•5 x packets of red and green branded M&Ms
•1 x silver rubber duck •1 x Interiors by Yoo book •1 x knitted bike (OK we didn’t take it. But we thought about it which is basically the same)
•1 x memory stick (tunnel borer-shaped)
•1 x miniature New York cab toy
•1 x half a pineapple hollowed out and filled with redcurrants
•2 x miniature fudge fingers
•5 x chocolate eclairs •…and a sugar rush!
“I learnt French in the lift of the Hilton hotel in Paris when I was working in room service.”
“Where’s Canary Wharf?”
“What is that? A baked cod? Why is she touching it?”
“There is no way that is going to fit in there.”
“Can I just squeeze in there and grab that tripod?”
“I have no pride” Cominguptomorrow...
Nothing. Unless you fancy hanging around in Cannes and spending €10 on every half pint you consume for another day or two. For those of you travelling
back to UK soil today, here are some suggestions for what you might like to do tomorrow...
• Consider a change of career after swearing your liver just can’t handle anther year.
• Watch Argo, smug in the knowledge that you are safely home having got through customs just fine.
• Get a head start on expenses by trying to guess how much you have spent based on receipt wad size.
• Enjoy a soft drink without being publicly ridiculed.
• Go to bed in your pyjamas. Not your clothes.
