Mans Last Great Adventure . . .




I am starting to prepare for my trip into the unknown a trip fraught with danger and wild beasts and things of which I am yet to think of. Preparations have already been made and we will be setting up our first camp in the freezer section of the huge out of town supermarket next to the frozen Peas. This will give us some protection from the prevailing winds that blow constantly from the large automated sliding doors.  I will be undertaking this journey with Esmeralda, Freddie and his Ferrets and we have managed to acquire bearers to carry the heavy equipment needed to complete our task. Our negotiations with the local tribe called The Checkouts failed terribly, but luckily Freddie found the leader of the reclusive Trolleymen who has agreed to carry our supplies for a modest fee. It seems the Trolleymen have some sort of strange device they use to carry stuff in called a trolley, which I suspect is the reason they are called the Trolleymen.

Anyway we will shortly be starting our trip (well sometime in the next few days) to find the source of the last great river that man has yet to explore.

Yes as our support vehicles park up in the car park of the great out of town supermarket in readiness there is nothing left to do but publicly announce our attempt to find the elusive Source Of The Aisle

Things are looking good for this MAN'S Last Great Adventure we have already had two memorable quotes from Freddie and Esmeralda

Dr Livingstone’s Fresh Organic Cornish Pasties I presume
And
I am going for a little walk I may get some thyme.


Should our expedition be successful there is already talk of an attempt on the North Face of the IKEA in the future.

  1. This trip of yours sounds strangely familiar...it's almost like I work in a place like the one you're describing...

    1. If you happen to see three Explorers trekking South wearing thick fur lined coats, wet suits, pith helmets and flippers with a sledge being pulled by 25 ferrets and followed by 15 elderly men pushing supermarket trolleys loaded with climbing equipment it may be us.

      If they have a Norwegian flag try and slow them down by offering them cheese samples from the Deli counter as they are keen to beat us (again).

      I hope all is well with you Miss Laura.

  2. Oh my Lord! Don't do it Mr Z. Only mild peril and heartbreak will occur on such a venture! I shall pray for your safe return.

    Good to see Esmeralda back. I love that twisted female.

    1. I will be heading off tomorrow, everything is prepared now, I plan to follow in the footsteps of Mr H. I will be taking pictures as I go, well maybe a couple. It appears the Ghost Writer will be with us too. . . .He is just a glory hunter.

      Talking of hunting Esmeralda says she is only coming to Hunt and Explore for Polar Bears.. . . . . NO I have that wrong apparently she is only coming to Hunt for Bare Polar Explorers. . . . . . . . TYPICAL.

  4. Perhaps you need some anti-anti-virus software, or a lArge brick. I saw someone earlier today spell "fall" with a mixed upper and lowercase as "FAlL". I thought it was a FAlLure to communicate.

    1. I started thinking about the name Livingstone and I realized that stones aren't normaLLy considered living. One of the traits of live things to that they move or grow. Then I thought about lava and avalanches, they both move and avalanches seem to grow. Like they say, it isn't the fall that gets you but the sudden slope. The word stop should have been on the end but I put slope instead because I imagined an avalanche happening where the horizontal piece of the letter t gets ripped off leaving an l and then the -- rolls downhill to the right and coils up into an e.
