Well, perhaps not quite, but indulge us this once, as our bags are packed, buckets, spades, picnic rug, water-wings, 2p coins to name but a few. Darrell was up at the crack of dawn to prepare our sandwiches and a flask for the journey, and now at 6 o’clock in the morning we are on the cusp of departure, heading for the pleasures of Butlins, Minehead. One last check to make sure we haven’t left anything behind and then we’ll be off …….. before we all burst with rampant and thronging excitement.
So, to totally misquote John Denver completely:- and if the mood takes you, hum along, we promise it’ll get stuck in your heads……….
Well, our bags are packed
We’re ready to go
We’re standing here outside our door
We’d hate to wake you up to say goodbye
(although we know Mr D will be half way through his day already)
But the dawn is breaking
It's early morn
Lu is waiting
She’s blowing her horn
Already we’re so excited
We might cry …….
Cause we’re leaving on a (metaphorical) jet plane
Don't worry, we’ll be back again
But ohhhhhhhh, we can’t wait to go!
We’re Butlins bound, we’ve not been let down
After all the times we’ve been stuck at home
We’ll tell you now, Covid don't mean a thing
Every place we go, we’ll think of you
Every song we sing, we’ll sing for you
We’ll be back, when we’ve had our Easter fling.
Cause we’re leaving on a (metaphorical) jet plane
Don't worry, we’ll be back again
But ohhhhhhhh we can’t wait to go!
What are we like???????????

Wonderful new words for an excellent song, leaving for a wonderful trip.
Although, I don't think John Denver brought buckets, spades, picnic rugs, water-wings or 2p coins with him.
