My 2 most favourite people ..

Boxing Day ....

A tradition that has been going for about 20 years

is we get the Party Poppers and put a lolly -

strawberry & cream onto the end and fire/pop it.

The lolly goes flying ....

We used to fire it and try and aim for the inside of the

Bon Bon hat my uncle would wear..

then it went further ...

to one person popping and the other trying to catch the lolly

in their mouth on the other end of the room

.... so safe and responsible ...NOT !!

this is my brother with his "design"

a 100 party popper contraption ...

he worked on it and surprised us..

surprised that he even thought of it ...hahahaha ..

A fire ready to happen, the fire extinguisher was ready ....

we pop about 400 poppers ....

this is the mess afterwards ....

Next year is the plan to design

a 150 party popper holder thingy ...

and we have had a few catch the lollies ...
