3bt Holiday 2: The things they say and those best left unsaid

An elderly lady in front in the queue for the carvery sounded just like Eric Idle as Brian's mum in 'Life of Brian'. We fully expected to hear “He's not the Messiah he's a very naughty boy!” any second. Similarly, in the 'Shout Out' bit for the kids in the ballroom, they were asked what their favourite film was. In amongst the calls of 'High School Musical' (very popular) and 'Digby, the Biggest Dog in the World' (Confused looks from anyone under the age of forty) we held our breath in case ours yelled out “Life of Brian!”

Driving past a turning called 'The Meadow' we all do our best 'Bambi' impression. (You'll need to have seen the film!)


An armoured vehicle was driving down New Milton High Street! Soldiers in full gear poking out the top of it. One wag shouts: "We're being invaded! I surrender!"


A boy running past us after a bunch of others, with what looked like a handful of wood chips: "I don't know what you're doing but I wanna join in!”
