We drove around Brora for a few minutes, and I refused chips because I already had chicken bites for lunch. The best part of today was when we went to Brora Learning Centre - I had missed Trish for quite sometime, and I was glad to see her, Fraiser and the other members of the learning center again, as this made my day more memorable. I also saw familiar stories that I wrote whilst I was still at Brora, like Kingula and Bear Of The Sunset. I thought up the Me, You, And...Challenge, writing African folk tales starring Furaha and her family set in movies and TV series before the episode or film ends. I asked Trish to help make the logo for the challenge, and discovered 'Story Mugs', mugs which tell a fascinating story, like the Ninja Fox mug. I liked the stories they printed out and the exciting blurbs. I had a muffin and some hot chocolate whilst I was here, and I used Transformers Armada, Digimon Adventure 02 and Digimon Adventure to create my Me, You, And...Challenge.
But that's not all. When I got home I got a letter from Beakus, the creators of Yakka Dee, saying they like my ideas for words in the show - they even gave me a Yakka Dee postcard and some Yakka Dee stickers.
What a memorable day, and I've promised to stay in contact with Trish and send her more stories for her to adapt to mugs and books and other stuff. It's so nice to be near an old friend again.
