Deal or no Deal

Posted by Boudica on June 16, 2006 3:08 PM | 

Georgia had a good idea for Gowerbury, so off I trotted down town to find the materials to make the idea work. I scoured the 'Pound Stretcher' type of shops for tat, all my scouring left me with a hefty bill of £35. I wish she didn't have such expensive ideas!

She said 'why don't we play Deal or no Deal' wow I thought that will be fun. Do you know they wanted £1 50 pence for a box down town and it was empty. Luckily Natalie spotted plastic boxes for £1 for 4. I had to buy red spray paint and they were sorted.
We bought dishclothes, flares, lighters, funny hats, inflatable silly toys, water pistols, scourers and flags they are for the booby prizes, we thought that the star prize would be one of those tiny bottles of vodka or whiskey.
Georgia is going to play Noel and negotiate with the contestant something along the lines of 'I will give you one cold beer for the contents of your box' it should be a good laugh or 'How about a packet of crisps'
We bought a prize for the best flag and a prize for the best tee shirt and cub player and comedien. This afternoon I am going into the garden to design my flag and tee shirt. I have had absolutely no inspiration and limited resources. The flag is an old pillow case and the tee shirt is an old one turned inside out, I am hopeless at drawing and painting, I think I will splash plenty of colour on it and hope for the best.
Casey fell out of bed last night and had to be taken to the hospital, she had a nasty bump on her head this morning but other than that no harm was done. She had fallen asleep on the bed with her mother and whilst her mother nipped into the bathroom she woke up and fell out. It was a shock and Natalie was very upset but as we mothers know children will get hurt when they are small, sometimes I wonder how they survive at all.

I like the deal or no deal idea. It made me laugh...

I think you could really play on the weaknesses of who's playing. For example, When Richard's up you could negotiate a couple of strongbow cans in order for him to stop. Or, when Gareth's up we could waft some stilton cheese under his nose. We'd have them buckling in seconds!
