We have decided on a project for this year, we are going to build a...

Zippy.

How cool is that...?

We spent hours the other night discussing how we could make one, what it should be made off, how big etc. I have been looking on the Internet for a Zippy pattern but not come any where near.

We are going to go into Roop’s work one weekend and mess around in the workshop with materials and tools to get an idea.

Once we have done Zippy, George is next in line. I don’t think we will bother with Bungle. My best friend Daniella, her nickname is Bungle and mine was/is Zippy. Fairly appropriate I think.

Rainbow was brilliant, I want it on DVD, there was something dodgy going on with Rod, Jane and Freddy I am sure. They couldn’t be that happy all the time unless drugs and or Sex was involved.

I read somewhere that Jeffery works in Sainsburys. Can you imaging buying some stuff and finding Jeffery on the Checkout...? I would be speechless then start spouting all Rainbow stuff. I bet he gets it all the time.

I wish I had the money to have bought the original Rainbow characters when they were auctioned off last year. I know Jim Davidson has a set and Roy Skelton (voice of Zippy and George) had some at home which lined the rabbit hutch...!

Ohhh by the way look out for Zippy on the Marmite advert, a copy should be appearing on Ruperts own site soon.

Snigger...that’s my afternoon planned now.
