The second exciting installment of things to do (and be done to) for the last week of term.
Find the Virgin.
A simple and fast activity, suitable for all boys.
- A map of Nuova Lazio is given out with a red and a black pen.
- The boys are allocated diferent areas of Nuova Lazio to investigate.
- Each boy marks with a black pen the inhabitations (houses, sheds, tents and dug-outs common to Nuova Lazio) where non-virgins abide.
- Each boy marks with a red pen the inhabitations where they discover a virgin.
- All virgins below 12 are excluded.
- When they return destroy the maps, there's no point. There are no virgins over 12 in NL.
- An excellent exercise in futility which builds character and wastes time.
- The perfect end-of-term activity
Dig a Hole
A complex task, suitable only for the high achievers. Needs some preparation and equipment, 1 Moro bar and a small bag of raw peanuts.
A paddock is obtained from a local farmer/marijuana plantation owner (NOTE: Definitely NOT the same paddock as used for
find the landmine)
- Both boys and girls can participate in this harmless activity
- Each person is given a shovel or a pickaxe
- The group (maximum 100 participants) proceed to the paddock, where you have already marked out separate digging areas of 5 metres square.
- The participants work in groups of 4, digging out the indicated area.
- Care must be taken not to:
- Throw soil into an adjoining marked area (bad form, not cricket) (Not that the bloody Black Caps would recognise a real game of cricket if it bit them in their collective arses)
- Bury tools under loose soil
- Bury other participants
- The holes dug have to be at least 5 metres deep
- At 1 O'clock, the groups change areas and proceed to fill in the recently dug holes.
- Be especially careful to note 2 and 3 of step 5 above.
- The first group to complete the fill-in do NOT get the Moro bar. You eat it as you watch. Seeing other people working hard causes a great hunger, and must be treated quickly.
- Remove all tools and COUNT THE PARTICIPANTS.
- Any missing can be accounted for as evolution in action
- Clean tools and return to Nuova Lazio High.
- Explain to the participants that they may as well get used to it.
- Distribute two peanuts each (2½ for the fastest group), and explain that they may as well get used to it.
More exciting activities tomorrow.
To complete today's package is a video expounding the reasons why men should by a certain British 'newspaper'. The video needs sound and I recommend caution, as some naughty words and pictures are included.
