Uppy is not totally impressed that he has lost this vote 6-4 to a green alien from the planet that has not even been visited by a health inspector from Stratford council.
The Ice Bucket Challenge, sometimes called the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, is an activity involving dumping a bucket of ice water on someone’s head to promote awareness of the disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and encourage donations to research. It went viral throughout social media during July-August 2014. In the US, people participate for the ALS Association, and in the UK, people participate for the Motor Neurone Disease Association.
The challenge dares nominated participants to be filmed having a bucket of ice water poured on their heads and challenging others to do the same. A common stipulation is that nominated people have 24 hours to comply or forfeit by way of a charitable financial donation.
Well we have been nominated by the great Zaff Collonag Ortenfe of planet Sitem Ax12 in the star cluster “Hateem”. to do the Ice bucket challenge. He has passed this on to OLD FART who has run a vote by our friends on Face Book and tonight at mid-night the vote will be closed.
We have been very busy over the past few weeks visiting London three times since our trip to number 10.
We had a BBQ at Compton Verney.
We went to see Ozzie and Motorhead and then went with Compton Verney to Tate Britain and then the next day we went to visit Nosher and Turnip.
Old Fart got a picture of us drawn on his arm..Is he crazy?
While with Nosher we went to see Victor The Rain Dog and his froggy Italian friends.
We went to see some dead people who were still camping in their tent after more than a hundred years!
Also we just got back from a weekend at the Cropredy festival where we met many many new friends including Elly from a band called Kiss the Mistress who very much liked us and drew us twice.
