It’s That time of year when your breath changes to a ghostly vapour and the Barrels are prepared

By The Archivist on October 16, 2012

It’s almost time for me to return to New Babbage for my annual season of… what ever.

 

First up Is the Fire Works which traditionally is the first weekend of November which happens to be the 3rd of November. Time will liley be around 3pm SLT to try an cater for both sides of the pond.

Following this a week later will be the Grand New Babbage Burning Barrel Race on the 10th of November. Same route as always, so if anyone wants to set up a stall atthe finishing area for freebies or something festive like toffee apples or Granade GobStoppers or Fish Soup, then by all means do so.

This will be the SIXTH Burning Barrel race in New Babbage and here is a link to documentaion of last years race http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCOwhFoVrn0

Spread the love

    This looks like enormous fun!  I’m sure the Yard can provide a tasty tidbit or two.

    Same route as always? But i’ve put in so many more streets since the first one! Don’t you want to kick those barrels down the stairs?

     

    PUH-LEES if you live on the route, turn off any restrictions on your land. This event is usualy filmed. don’t want everyone vanishing or barrels gettingn stuck half way down Abney Parkway.

    The boy stood on the burning barrel,
    The flames ’round him did roar;
    He found a bar of Ivory Soap
    And washed himself ashore.
    I do enjoy this race. This one will be my third!
