One flew over the Hippo’s nest

[ricky lake]

The following morning Radched played this during breakfast

Instead of calmimg us. It inspired a riot

I ran out to be greeted by torrential rain

Sheltering under a tree. This very old geezer passed me by and screamed

Value is everything

Exactly. I thought

[Anonymous]

Did you get the PM I sent you last night?

[ricky lake]

The day passed until nurse Nathan came and ushered me off to Carpentry class

Oh boy did I hate that

Still. I will bide my time.

Dreaming of escaping

I sneaked out for a cheeky fag

Good old Nathan smuggled some in.

As soon as I lit up

This happened

[ricky lake]

[ricky lake]

No i didnt

Jeeze

[ricky lake]

I can read the first two lines only

The answer is no

Negative

No bloody way

Kick on mcduff. Im in full steam mode

[ricky lake]

I stumbled back to class feeling really tipsy

Even the fat nurse looked nice

Eventually i just went to bed

However the dreams and the ghost of Gamble would have their say

I mean can a bloke get a kip🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Lake’s on fire !
A fascinating read
Big splash by the Hippo
Ward 7 during the pandemic…
A nice memory jerk to a decade and a half back when Splash was a lot freer and easier.

The sleep was a weird ride on a slow roller coaster

I kept seeing a flock of sheep and the old and scraggy one repeatedly asked me to say sorry

He looked drunk to be honest

But one vital bit of info he did pass on was if ever I was in dire need just to chat Baron of Basinstoke

All would be well

I awoke in a muck sweat

Stubled into the fat nurse’s office stole two bags of crisps and headed to the Tv lounge

I found sleep on the sofa

[ricky lake]

The next day

I got dressed and started chanting Baron of Badingstoke

Withn ten minutes the carpentry teacher offered to take me into nearby Kettering to buy me some overalls

Jesus wept Kettering is the bumpit of England

The shutters in the shops are permanent

Sigh I thought

Then it hit me. Kettering is off the A14

Mmmmmmmm. I could maybe hitch a lift to Felixtowe

Hmmmm. Wicked

[ricky lake]

Quickly I grabbed my life possesions

Bank card ( possibly 500 quid in )

Picture of my idol Donny Osmond

Toothbrush and a comb

Sheepishly I acceped his offer. And off we went

Nobody is interested in this style of posting now, Ricky

It was good while it lasted but is a good decade behind the times now. Hope you’re still up for Exeter earlier next month

[ricky lake]

In kettering. I managed to give my teacher the slip. Headed for Wicky park (Wickstead to you Pilsen)

Got there. Long walk. Sat on a bench. Wondered what next

My day dream was interupted by a fight outside the park two truckers having a proper bashing match

[ricky lake]

Yep I am

Im going to write this to the end

For posterity

I dont care if anybody reads itv

☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

[ricky lake]

Lol

[ricky lake]

The Splash continues,,,,,…………

[ricky lake]

Before you could snap your fingers I am breaking up this fight, and shortly after Im getting a lift from my Spanish driver , who could not speak any English

Wonderful

We had a short stay in Holland , my good driver bought me some hot food.
