Benny Boo in his First Production

Benny Boo was cast in his first school play as EEyore he was so proud he came home with his lines he had to learn and even took them to Nelson on his weekend with Katrina and Rodney and kept learning them up there he knew them off by heart clever little chicken that he is I got the job of making his costume again for him and the first one well that was a bit of a stuff up much to Bens delight he went off to school and told the class for his morning news and then i got a n ote home asking to go in to see his teacher she was concerned and wanted me to not worry and let him wear the one i stuffed up but Ben wasnt having that so I sat up making sure his outfit was up to his standards and low and behold i managed to do it He was so excited on the first day of show we couldnt make it to that one due to work but we made sure we made it the next day and he was full of smiles and puffed his chest out when he seen us sitting in the front row he did so well and managed to get through all his lines with no problems.

This cheeky Koala decided while i was having my photo taken with it to reach down and try to take my glasses off my head the keeper warned me but not soon enough for the koala to grab a handful of hair but he was nice enought to leave it attatched to my head

Cheeky wee thing
