New Year at the cells

Last night mum and dad had a party for us Puddlers. It was Cops n Robbers theme. We have got a group picture somewhere but this will have to suffice. It started at 6.30 and mum's carefully selected theme-based playlist lasted for over 4 hours. The olds danced and looked so lame. At least they were enjoying themselves though.

Their fancy dresses were good. We had Bin Laden, 70s US cop, Kojak, Del Boy, Daphne, Warden Stacey, prisoner, Dick Turpin, Cat Balou ... Taggart came later in mufti as he wasn't feeling great.

And us kids were Wayne Rooney, King Robert, robber, prisoner, PC Hunt and the Devil.

Dad bought us inflatable instruments and we played bands, did some drawing, watched DVDs and played Lego Heroes.

At midnight we ran round in the road and everyone hugged and kissed. Why I don't know! We watched Adam Ant on Hootenanny. Dad let off a 45 second firework display outside. By 1.30am they all puddled off and we went to bed.

Happy new year!
