Penny P about day 5

Another day, another bunch of ballistic Gumballing to enthral the masses…

Gumball formed an apparently Secret Society on Wednesday with sturdy walls and the fortuitous and naughty aspect of a private island for the babies to romp on. But, just as they were about to get settled, the throng of Thursday’s demands came bating at their doors….

Someone (Flash, I believe) has squashed a Lambo (very naughty, we love them in fully formed format; we note the insurers wringing their hands, or gouging chunks out of their heads, depending on the policy). Moral of the story: trees and cars are not compatible…..

Having trouble locating the boys from Dirty Sanchez…. I am concerned that they have started a war of boy-poo in Asia…..Prtitchard, poo and petrol – possibly the most devastating combination on Earth…..

So, the stakes have just been upped for G3000 2006: a stunning gamble on a combination of five into Las Vegas – Absolute Poker are playing cards with wheels….. $1 mil to the clever peeps who pull it off and $1 mil to charity…. Can the Rally-Totties pull this off?

My lovelies, Team-Polizei, have followed their word and played sensibly on surfaces not usually ridden in US/ European territory (mind you, I challenge them to the off-road terrain of Birmingham, UK, for a roll-of-the-dice approach to driving ;p – Thailand is positively smooooth compared to the 3D tarmacing/ asphalting approach here). Mind you, Alex and Mikey broke the car. Not on purpose.

What do you do in a situation like that? Co-ordinate troops to fix Le Interceptor and work the Gumball legend like a couple of saints…. Graciously, Al et Mickster congratulated COT70N on the rapture of capture of today’s checkpoint crown….although, I suspect that gentle graciousness will step aside for a more cunning strategy (with formal graciousness) for the next legs of the rally….

Once again, we will sleep tonight safe in the knowledge that there’s one hell of a party at play.

The forum’s a dream – get your beautiful backsides there if you haven’t already! Pics, banter and general Gumballing, it’s one of the friendliest places on the web! By the way – any of you who are clever and cute enough to have encountered the Gumball Phenomenon by camera, video or just by one-to-one action (oo-er… steady now!) scoot your booties over to the forum and share the spoils with some other Gumball-greedy fans!

In a short moment, you’ll be spared and I’ll shut up for a wee while. You should know that I lurrrve driving, but am totally ‘hats off’ to the top-treacles who are actually making this incredible event.

From the woman who couldn’t park an ant in Switzerland, let alone complete 3000 miles without being a complete damsel in distress, I’m glad to share it with others who have the spirit…

Today Thailand… tomorrow, the World!
