On the 7th day of Christmas.....



....Seven Swans-a-Swimming


At Southport....

On the 7th day of Christmas Access Point gave to me ….. a bag of satsumas and two plastic bowls filled with water!!!


The weather forecast was wet and cold this particular day with strong winds and showers of sweets coming down from above!

Our swans “Rich and Slates” and “Peter and Steve” had their bibs on at the ready (or their plastic carrier bag ripped in half from Boots haha!) They were all ready to 'duck for the satsumas' – which didn’t float!



As the satsuma gets dumped into the pond (bucket) the teams were off bobbing around to try and grab the Satsuma in their beaks as quickly as possible. 

All the other ducklings were watching on in awe as we wailed for the first swan to pop up their head.....Slates! He was up first satsuma in beak!



Each swan went head to head (I some how picked the two men in the building with the longest hair to have to dip their heads in the water mwhhhaaaahh!) The water was dripping down their faces! – I'm clearly the black swan!

 

 Our winners were Rich and Slates, each won a nice Satsuma!!  Well done and 'nice-swan' to everyone who took part in the festivities!!!
 


At Liverpool....

Today’s game was 7 Swans ‘a’ Swimming!



Two teams played 'Duck Satsuma' with each contestant getting one minute to take out 6 Satsuma’s from a bowl of water using only their mouths!



Team A - Chris Brundrit & Ali Perez, Team B - Frank Gamble & Tony Graham.



The game got off to a slow start until Chris got the hang of it and emptied the bowl, then passing the baton on to Ali who not only emptied the bowl but filled it up and emptied it again!!! Frank and Tony had no chance – well done guys you all did great!



Joanne got to scrap in the sack today and congratulations to Tony who gets the hamper prize of jam!!!



Santa’s helpers today were Mrs Santa aka Ste Rawlings who couldn’t wait to wear the dress again, staff in Liverpool are getting concerned we may now have to call him Stephanie?! 

Kate was unfortunate to stumble on Ste adjusting his own Satsuma’s in the dress?! And Mary, dressed as an elf and was forced to feel Ste/Stephanie’s boob, not sure if it constitutes sexual harassment?! 


 Perhaps Kasha can advise or offer councelling to those effected by the events of today.

See you tomorrow for 8 Maids a Milking
