For Christmas I want a small helicopter, one that's about a foot from windscreen to tail fin, and I want everyone in town to start wearing top hats so I can spend January wandering round town trying to land my new toy on people's heads.
That's a lie, for Christmas I want to put giant top hats on the roofs of buildings and persuade helicopter pilots to land on them for photo opportunities, but this is less about the choppers and more because I think buildings would look cooler if they wore hats, especially the tall multi-stories. Then in January, as the Christmas trees start to die, rather than let them fade away into brown obscurity, we can use their faded needles to fashion huge moustaches and and sideburns to add to our wonderful hat/building affairs.
The helicopters, if anything, would spoil it, though they'd probably come in handy with the construction.
If we work together we could build these hats from papier mache, a nice little winter project, who's with me? We'd be famous, we might even get on The One Show. No longer would Preston be known for its transport stations and perpetual bridesmaid of a football team. I think it would bring more money to the city than Tithebarn ever could, and at a hundreth of the price, we might get a reward, a sticky bun or something.
I'm quite excited about the whole thing.
Another fun one last night, I'm enjoying that on the ground floor we can go from Day to Remember, to a 13 year old Beastie Boys remix, to Chase & Status, to Limp Bizkit, to Goldfinger, to Finch, to Kings of Leon, to Jay Z, to NoFx, to The Blackout, to MGMT, to Bullet for My Valentine, to Ram Jam, to Pendulum, to Greenday. I'm enjoying that in the pit more and more requests are getting played and those who live metal can dance metal, hear metal, talk metal and metal metal. Metal.
More of the same next week, already looking forward to it, then we're into our big Christmas party on 22nd December, and our end of year bash on the 29th. Stay tuned for announcements related to those very very soon.
On a vaguely related note, if we were to open our upstairs room on a Tuesday, make it a three roomer, and we put you in charge, what would you do with it? This subtle guise for a customer survey is your quiz for the day, best of luck with it.
Have a great weekend, and let me know if you're up for being on The Big Hat Squad.
