Passionate about Pumpkins

Luckily, we were far too busy to do any more on the land that afternoon - tomorrow is the great pumpkin competition judging, so we had to move our monster. Mad Robbie brought a trailer, and we loaded his two and then ours - something relaxing to do after all the heavy lifting of the morning.

The 'Mythos Miracle' (100% recycled, post-consumer waste) leaving home - with a little help from its friends

Delivering to a bar is all very well, but it does mean you have to have a beer and sit around chatting when you get there.

Robbie and Bill with the Pumpkin Weighing Apparatus: modelled on a medieval siege weapon. Children will be loaded in one side, pumpkin in the other - what can possibly go wrong?











Tough competition: early arrivals include Mad Robbie's Monster; Bill's so far unnamed surprise; Harrison's incredible/inedible Hulk, and the Mythos Miracle (2nd from left - and slightly outclassed, unfortunately)
