Brian + H & H
By George He's Done It
Hoof and I were busy chatting over breakfast and scheming as to what mischief we could get up today when Horace roared into the room shouting pink light, pink light, we knew what this meant history was about to be made, the bungee jump was on.
We checked data from around the world including sources such as NASA, The Met Office, and Farmers Weekly, conditions were near on perfect all bar a 25mph wind yet Horace felt he could deal with that, we were good to go.
With no time to lose Hoof and I made a packed lunch while Horace sat down to breakfast (could this be his last one) he tucked into a large bowl of Wheaty Bangs and All Bran, shaken but not stirred.
Those of you that read all of these true accounts will remember that a second secret jump site had been mentioned, well this was masterminded by Hoof’s PR company back at that time, and it was fake news, mention the word secret and the press will go to great lengths to find out about it, so Hoof contacted his PR company who tipped off the press that the jump was going to happen today and camera crews and reporters from all over the world went to the secret jump site, which allowed us to get on with this stunt in private.
However although Horace is publicity adverse, he will never forget his roots, and provided the jump is successful he has agreed to give interviews to ‘The John Deer owners club’ and of course, ‘Practical Pigs Magazine’ who are doing a special offer of 4 issues for £14.36. google should you wish.
Sadly Mrs P was unable to accompany us today as she had to get the ingredients for the Christmas cake, the sight of Horace’s little trotter as it waved goodbye to Mrs P was a sight that will live with me forever.
The atmosphere began to change as it was time to saddle up and make our way, you could feel the emotion in the air, Horace began to pace up and down, was this the first sign of nerves, or was the All Bran having an effect.
We arrived at the jump site, Horace was adamant as all the training and preparation had been done he was going to carry out this stunt without the aid of a safety net or any recovery support vessels in the estuary.
Horace Hoof and I had a group hug, and Horace strode off across the bridge purposely like John Wayne entering a western bar on a bender.
And as they say the rest is history. Horace has said he will make one more public appearance on Flickr before Christmas, subject to the Vicar’s permission, watch this space.
A big thank you to all that join in with these shenanigans that can only happen in this wonderful county of Cornwall, your comments and banter is so appreciated 🐷🐎😎😂😂
