Tin Tin came round to the mansion to spend time with me today. She was feeling very nostalgic for the days when Thunderbirds aired on BBC 2 and gained a cult following, especially when there was a Blue Peter craft in the shape of her home island, Tracy Island. We looked through her big red scrapbook and found photos of all the good times we shared when airing on BBC 2 with our friends, including all the times I spent with my friend Slomo and the time Captain Scarlet got drunk one Christmas, which made us laugh. We then watched archive tapes the BBC had lent to Tin Tin of all the days Thunderbirds was broadcast on the channel, including their landmark airing of Trapped In The Sky. Tin Tin shed a tear at the end and hugged me. Us sisters are always nostalgic for anything.

The Adventures Of Alan & Me - The Adventure Begins
Alan and I had an adventure today! We already had everything packed, including some food for the journey, and we set off in Thunderbird 3. Everything was going well, and we were flying high over the ocean, until Thunderbird 3 ran out of petrol. It shot down to land, and we were scared to death because of this! Unfortunately, we survived and Thunderbird 3 landed on this beautiful tropical island, far far away from and not like Tracy Island. Alan was unconcious the last minute, but I woke him up by dragging him to the sea and splashing water all over him. He woke up okay, but he had a huge bleeding gash on his forehead. Luckily, he had brought a first aid kit, and I tended to his wounds very gently. Now, all we need to do, like they do in the movies, is learn how to survive.
Ice Cream Treats
Tin Tin and I went to the ice cream parlour today to have two large tubfuls of ice cream. Tin Tin loved lemon and lime, while I liked chocolate, which was obviously my favourite if you top vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce. Since Tin Tin was the only adult around, I taught her how to eat my ice cream wildly doggy style. I showed her how, and then said, "Now you try!" There was a moment of silence. And then, Tin Tin ate all the ice cream wildly by chomping it all down using only her mouth, while the people at the cafe glared in confusion. Soon, Tin Tin had lemon and lime ice cream all over her face, and she let out a huge burp. I let out a little burp, and due to the comparison of our burps, we giggled loudly, and then laughed out loud. When you have a big sister figure like Tin Tin, life is always fun.
