The Kitchen Olympics


What, more talent? I hear you ask. Yes. It is true. The Fluffy Hair house has been taking part in the Kitchen Olympics! Here Nora and I are racing in the skeleton bob (not, as Nora thought, the opposite of a fat man called Bob, as that would be silly and does not make any sense).

I think my aerodynamic figure helped me to win that one.

I also tried my luck with skiing, but found this a bit tricky. As you can see, skiing can be very difficult without the proper equipment.





Nora seemed to enjoy the curling the best. She was actually quite good at it. Surprisingly along the way (or perhaps not), she found a couple of biscuits that she had hidden under the rug. Unfortunately, this made each game take a lot longer, as many nibbles were had in between delivering the stone and sweeping (not to be confused with a postman with a heavy parcel and a chimney cleaner).





The final race of the weekend was the bob sleigh. Again, Nora was slightly confused about the possibility of an unsightly and untimely death of someone called Bob. However, after the confusion abated, we had a great race! Some of the animals in the Fluffy Hair house came to cheer us along. Yes, even Zippy! He is not too well still, bless him, and spent most of the time shouting "George" and "Geoffrey."



But anyway. As you can imagine, we are now both very tired, so will be going to sleep early tonight. We hope you have enjoyed a glimpse of the Kitchen Olympics, and hope to have more teams competing in four years time.

So, good night

Love from Lewis (going for gold!) xx

PS Nora (going for gateaux) sends hugs too
