furry animals
a friend and i got paid the princely sum of £20 a saturday to dress up in furry animal suits and give out balloons to children to promote a shop. we also had to have our photos taken with them in the hope that the fond mummies of cheadle would come running into the boutique to get the photo and then buy all the clothes.

might have worked too if the cheapskate owner hadn't skimped massively on the costumes. we had a distinctly grey snoopy with a wobbly head and a distressing hole in the ass and a horrible luminous pink panther that used to give children hysterics at a 3 mile radius...
