Dubs'int Dales Halloween Spooktacular 28th-30th Oct 2011

right! been conflabing with the mighty Pingu, who's suggested a sing song 'round the campfire Saturday night and has asked us to learn the words to 'Monster Mash' come on you know you want to!

I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise


He did the mash
He did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
He did the mash
It caught on in a flash
He did the mash
He did the monster mash


From my laboratory in the castle east
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
To get a jolt from my electrodes


They did the mash
They did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
They did the mash
They did the monster mash


The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolf Man
Dracula and his son


The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five"


They played the mash
They played the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
They played the mash
It caught on in a flash
They played the mash
They played the monster mash


Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
He opened the lid and shook his fist
And said, "Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?"


It's now the mash
It's now the monster mash
The monster mash
And it's a graveyard smash
It's now the mash
It's caught on in a flash
It's now the mash
It's now the monster mash


Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
And my monster mash is the hit of the land
For you, the living, this mash was meant too
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you


Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash
The monster mash
And do my graveyard smash
Then you can mash
You'll catch on in a flash
Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash

 

Trev/Pingu has also asked for more suggestions >

 

for those with a little alcofrol in their system can they be A3? ;D

 

Mmmmm yes alcofrol....maybe I should make them in braille ;D

 

'We'll be mashed,
monster mashed
Yes we'll be mashed,
It's a Hallowe'en bash
We'll be mashed,
monster mashed
Yes we'll be mashed,
Watch the morning crash!

 

Is Steve pulling my leg about the fancy dress?!

 

Well it is halloween and you don't look much like a witch without it!

 

With this hair, I always look like a witch!!!

 

We should be coming to this one, even if it's just for the day.

Val has been SORNed for the winter so we need to decide what to do, I think it will be way too cold for a tent :cold:

Has the venue been finalised? If it's the one above we might splash out for a night in the B&B!! Failing that we may have to tax Val and then claim it back ;D

Oh and as for walking or caving we will do either - or both!!

 

yeah! tent it! It won't be too cold : Are you bringing Sophie with you? Might be too cold for her

 

There are indoor options if you want them!

We'll be in Wilma, cross everything you've got!

Helen, will there be hook ups available?

 

Me and eldest daughter will be there non slumming it in a tent any fool can be cold and uncomfortable

Eldest daughter wants to come caving aswell shes nearly 12 is that ok?

 

fantastic!

 

Púca needs her heat when it's cold; she can't really get about if she's too cold now :-[

 

We're going to check out hookups at the weekend so will feedback!
