Bingo

Were you watching the launch of the Falcon 9 rocket and the Crew Dragon Capsule last Saturday.🚀

As you know Hoof & Horace were the brains behind this whole operation which you will have read about on my stream from previous reportages going back to 2018.🐎🐷

 

Who will ever forget the incident in which Hoof and Horace were called out on Christmas Day 2018 when the cleaning lady at Cape Canaveral stumbled (allegedly) onto the launch button and initiated the countdown sequence, the boys were there in under the hour, sorted the problem and back at our table in time for their Christmas lunch.🎄🍺🍺🍷🍷🍗

 

Let’s move on to the here and now, the manned launch was scheduled for last Wednesday, what happened, the launch was postponed due to bad weather, rubbish the astronauts had lost the ignition keys, Hoof was furious.🐎👹🔑🔑🔑

 

So when Hoof and Horace had a spare three quarters of an hour Saturday afternoon they knew the only way to get a job done properly is to do it yourself.

Horace phoned Mrs Trebillcock, the winner of the village botty coughing competition and asked if she was free for half hour as they required her services.👵💨💨💨

 

She responded “that she was making pasties for the online Bingo evening in the village, so if you could give me ten minutes Horace, they will then be ready to come out of the oven and I will be good to go”.♨️

 

Meanwhile H & H wheeled the Typhoon out of their new shed, filled it with fuel, a by-product of some form of alcoholic drink Mrs P had been making.

Mrs Trebillcock came bustling down across our field in her best frock and hobnail boots ready for the flight to Cape Canaveral. 💨💃

 

For social distancing reasons Mrs Trebillcock sat on the wing of the Typhoon, she is the type of lady who likes to feel the air rushing through her hair (was she in for a treat).💆♀️

 

With the lack of aircraft in the skies at the moment, Hoof and Horace were able to take a more direct route to Cape Canaveral, so the flight from the village to the launch pad in Florida took only fifteen minutes, normally it is forty five.⏱

 

Hoof immediately took charge of the situation at the Cape Canaveral launch site, he sent Horace over to the Falcon 9 rocket to carry out some pre flight checks, such as the screen washer fluid, headlights and that the spare wheel had been inflated. Horace gave the thumbs up.💧💧💡🐷👍

 

The astronauts were told by Hoof to get in their little white bubble car, travel over to the launch site, get themselves on board and seat belts fastened.

Though Hoof does not really agree with it, he went along with the request for a countdown. Tell me honestly, when you sit in your car to go on a journey, do you look at your partner and say hang on a minute, 10, 9, 8, 7, and so on, no way, its kick the tyres, fire the thing up and down the road.🚗🔥

 

Anyway think back to Saturday, did you all hear the voice of a lady going through the countdown sequence, yes that was our Mrs Trebillcock, however her actual party piece (party) was to launch the rocket, did you notice there was an almighty rush of wind which came out of the right hand side at the bottom (no pun intended) of the gantry assembly, yes this was the phenomenal propulsion system of the village botty coughing champion that propelled the Falcon 9 rocket into space.👵💨💨💨🚀

 

Job done, and Mrs Trebillcock was back in the village in less than half an hour in order to make more pasties. Her first job, she washed her hands.🛀🚿🙌🙋♀️

 

Thank you so much for looking at my photos, your comments and banter are so appreciated.

Take much care out there, enjoy the weekend
