The morning after a 12 hour stint on the scenery for the local young farmers pantomine production of 'The Little Red Tractor'. A long day wielding a paint brush ended with a run through, in costume, of the production. It seems virtually identical to the last 2 productions. Once again I am suprised that the young people - who many would see as perfect examples of yokel-dom - choose to play the part of country bumpkins and fail to see the irony in that.
Everyone stumbled through their words, sang off key and the back end of the pantomime cow was writing up a college project. How we laughed? I have the most annoying, cloying song coursing through my head: 'I go Oo, Oo, Oo, You go Ha, Ha, Ha....'
However, it is amazing how much can be achieved in a very short time with a great deal of goodwill and come Thursday The Show Will Go On. Round here of course, the weather must be taken into consideration and snow is a possibility.
