Officer Buckle & Gloria – “a good team”.
As time is getting shorter and shorter I am keeping my comments brief, but hopefully the pictures give a clue to what what we’ve been up to. I have made the new shadow screen for the show and Officer Buckle’s costume is complete bar a few little extras.
I found the transformation of fellow performer Tim Austin into Officer Buckle somewhat bizarre. Tim looks nothing like “Officer Buckle” in real life and I did wonder how convincing he would look in the role. The addition of moustache, glasses, wig, costume and some instant weight gain in the form of a cushion transformed him into a surprisingly accurate looking “Officer Buckle”. We were also amused by “Officer Buckle’s Instant Weight Loss Programme” which simply involves removing the cushion.

Apologies…just spotted how rubbish my grammar was!
I knew what you meant which is the important thing 🙂 Social Media’s not known for its grammar anyway!
Looks great, Officer Buckle and dog. I’m now the complete master of social media, blogging and facebooking, so will keep in virtual touch.
