I am making the costumes, as predicted, in a last minute rush out of rolled up newspaper and crepe paper. We are due at the dress rehearsal soon, having already completely missed the park meet-up and I am still making octopus tentacles. I have not allowed for Scooter’s arms, so the more pedantic on-lookers might observe that he actually has some bonus tentacles.
I made a start last night but unfortunately, did not get round to making Scooter’s octopus costume, much to his distress and Hub’s helpful observations such as “nice to know you’re not leaving it until the last moment” have not been very supportive.
Still, post-dress rehearsal, at least I can take small comfort in the fact that Scooter’s octopus costume at least features tentacles.
