Our characters, Inspector Malaprop, Gerald Semidetached and Sally Vane will soon be meeting Don Canneloni,Crepe Suzette and The Dog as well as newly promoted under cover cops, Tom and Jerry..... We create street theatre....

It appears to be that time of year again. The coop is closed up...and the grumpies have their feet up. Eric and I will have to do the Christmas party now, like it or not. Not.
Are you feeling miserable, fed up with politics and Brexit and the rising price of animal feedstuff? Can't wait for Christmas to be over? Then why not come to the GreenBanks Xmas doo and be thoroughly miserable with us? No jollity allowed!
... We will be at The Rising Sun on the evening of the 19th having a quiet half and mebbe a slice of margarita...don't hold your breath.
You are cordially invited to join us if you must

We are very pleased that Mr Green has finally given away his last daughter. And that he was smiling whilst doing it ...not easy when you're normally a grumpy grandad

Grumpy Grandads have blagged their way into the Bolton Food Festival....I really hope they have a turkey and all the trimmings...it would be to ridiculous to worry about the consequences if they haven't

I need some help. I want to create an Ice Cream Van ditty (New show). The tinny sounds we hear all the time when the ice cream man is coming. However I want a more anarchic tune. If you have listened to Lullaby Nirvana I'm after something like that. Short very ice cream van like but totally the wrong tune. Things that spring to mind?....firestarter.....nirvana come as you are....rock the casbah.... London calling.. ..the good the bad and the ugly....the ice cream man will be overtly fat with a comb over and be rude and very loud....mostly!😁

We're on our way to #HalifaxPieceHall....donkey woman too. Apparently....cooo

Meanwhile at the Pigeon Fanciers Coop Eric and Harold have been collecting more fine examples of Pigeon Poo to be oven dried and ready for Sunday's Outing to #HalifaxPieceHall ...someone has to do it as long as they don't get mixed up with the macaroons again!

Grumpies are out tomorrow!! Accelerate Oldham

Inspector Malaprop here...still listening to all the messages left on the Telephone at the Neighbourhood Weekender .there's loads and loads. ..

We will be flying in if the wind holds up and "the loops don't kill us" as foretold by Eric.. hoping the wife will finish fettling my flying cardigan in time .moths!!
