The Royal Fireworks (of course!)

For those of you keeping score.  THAT was a blatant plug.

They have decent fireworks now?
Does that mean they got rid of that guy who was in charge of the charges?
What was his name... pyrosomething...

(just kidding, I left that off my list by accident. The TRF fireworks show is amazing)

Want a Kiss Card? Try the Star Throw.


Lol.  I HATE the Kiss Cards!  The silly teenage boys never read the fine print: "This Card Entitles the Bearer to One Free Kiss from any willing man woman or beast."  So, I usually direct them to the camel rides.  B/c the camels are much more willing than I am to kiss some strange teenage boy!

And I agree with Lady Ann.  The Bilge Pumps are highly entertaining.

Molly, I ran the Maze 2 years ago, and those 6 year olds get to the bell so fast because they go under the walls.  ;D I also ran the archery range in Sherwood Forest last year, and those are real bows and arrows that will poke real holes in things. :o

Randal

Those little brats! I knew they had to be cheating, lol.

For some reason, I remembered the archery range using the same arrows we used in high school gym. You know, the phony dull tip plastic ones. I must just have the awkward nightmares of high school PE ingrained into my subconscious  :-\

These are some great recommendations.

If anyone sees me stumbling around Saturday, I'd love to say hi to you guys.  I'll look somewhat like my avatar, albeit bigger and without the wife who can't make it this trip.

Oooo I have to try that. I always freeze and don't know what to say when they come up to me and do that. Like a deer in headlights. Flattering but AAAKWAAARRRD!

You had one in hand when you wrote that, didn't you? ;D

When they ask me where they can redeem one, I always send them to one of our own young ladies, who will usually make them play her game several times.  ;) That, or the llamas are quite cuddly.  :D

I admit it, I had to go look for the exact wording. I had one in my scrapbook from a couple of years ago :)  I scrapbook every year at faire. 

And many thanks for sending them to the llamas so I don't have to deal with them! :)

the gyros in greek town are really good if you haven't had them before.
I can vouch for that!  I used to be mainly a red beans & rice bread bowl guy, but the gyros are stealing some of my meal money :)

TRF MUST SEE:  4:00 Auction at The Pirates Cove. It is without a doubt the BEST SHOW at the faire.  :) 
My memory's a bit hazy, so forgive me if I'm wrong here, but is the Pirates Cove the store that had everything $11 last season, or is it the one across the way?

Kiss cards? Element, you better clue me in on this cause I am unknowing of such things at TRF. I don't want to fall prey to something like this...

I might retort a bit more haughtily then most. "Ok, well...don't mind if I bend over then...*
Still Meggers, just a little more grown up now. :)

Ahahaha Ok will do.

It is a card that the Guttenburg Press creates for sale of 10 cents each I think and well you can give them to people and it says exactly that on them. "This Card Entitles the Bearer to One Free Kiss from any willing man woman or beast."

If you accept, you keep the card and have the choice to kiss that person how YOU please. (if you go for the cheek they might whip their face around really fast to where you kiss their lips) If you do not accept/ kiss them you do not get the card. if you accept, the card is yours, you can then go to someone YOU want to kiss and give it to them and see if they accept.

It is kinda fun when you know the people but it can also get really weird.
