howie’s halfpipe

I have been asked to tell the story of breaking the little girls leg in Greece.

Its not a really exciting story but here goes.

We where doing a festival in the same spot each night and I was in a walking puppet stage, with my scottish puppet ‘angus”. Anyway Angus was a bit cheeky and rude. He used to hid in his theatre then when kids got closer he would jump out and scream “boooooooo”.
This used to make the kiddies laugh and they would get him to do it again and again.

On this one occasion I did it again, but this little girl screamed and turned around and ran away, as she ran she fell over and broke her leg.

I didn know cause you cant see much from inside the theatre and it was about 11pm.

But the next night I was told and asked not to do the “boo” thing anymore.
