SMASH IT, RUIN IT, DESTROY IT





They say that out of the ashes a phoenix will rise. They say that from every bad incident you develop a new edge of resilience and that you will become a better person. They say where there is loss, extra strength develops. And they say that all that is burnt is merely a patch for a new beginning.

Yeah whatever.

This week saw the birthday party for Handsome James. The devastation that ensued is indescribable and has left serious consequences.

He hates birthdays and each year we do our best to make them nice for him. The year’s theme was Super Mario Brothers. After last years dinosaur incident which ended up with me stabbing the farmers’ wife in the fanny we thought we would try something a little tamer. 

I went as Bowser – obviously, Top Gun Kes was Princess Peach, Handsome James was Mario, Frank The Peacock; Luigi. Dave The Piercer went as that gay little wining mushroom; Toad, the Fat Fuck Farmer went as Yoshi, Knuckles The Magpie went as Donky Kong and every one else went as mushrooms.

As we are in the middle of harvest the barns are all getting full, so we hired a marquee, got in the local boozer to run the bar, hired some Canadian dancing girls with only maple leaves covering their modesty, got a magician and some Japanese – but only to scrutinise the authenticity of our Mario characters.

So the stage was set for a right good piss up.

We began drinking before sunset and by 8pm I was already arguing with Knuckles. Everyone knows this feud will soon boil over and no one seems to be trying to mediate. Knuckle’s keeps trying his black magic shit out just to scare me, but this time what he did took the fucking biscuit. Come 8.30 he had spiked a load of maple syrup with good knows what, tipped it over the Canadians and dared Handsome James and Frank The Peacock to lick it off them.

The Canadian’s were well up for this and by this point it would seem as though, yet again Knuckles The Magpie had taken over as life and soul of the party. I had to act fast to get back to the top of the social ladder. I called over TGK as I had a plan but needed her help….

There is only one way to settle a dispute in super Mario brothers. You guessed it: Mario Karts.

Within minutes Handsome and Frank were totally pinned. The Japanese were photographing everything, the Canadians were rubbing more and more maple syrup on themselves and all the other guests were pissed up - dressed as mushrooms and sat in circle around Knuckles The Magpie. They were swaying from side to side as he was sat in the centre of the circle dressed as a fucking orange gorilla, wearing spats on his feet and playing a silver plated harmonica.

I had to do all I could not to see red….. but it was time to see green instead! Now Obviously on this farm we do not have go karts or a racing track. We also don’t have fucking turtles on clouds with traffic lights on a fishing rod, but we do have plenty of space and farm kit – so you get the gist.

We also have powerful John Deere tractors. All that we lacked were heat seeking red turtle shells but we did still have the weapons system that Knuckles stole two weeks ago to blow up the other village, which still was packing plenty of rockets. Against my knowledge TGK fitted it to her tractor, as she knew deep down the shit was going to hit the fan and she would probably end up having to save my black ass again!

Me and TGK went and assembled the tractor fleet by the marquee. For the record John Deere’s are very spacious and yes I do fit in them and yes I do drive them when I have to.

Still dressed as king Bowser, I stormed into the marque and stole a microphone off a naked Canadian doing what could only be described as a crab like manoeuvre whistling the ITV theme tune to Hercule Priorot.

“As the main protagonist of Super Mario Brothers its naturally fitting I should interfere at this point and challenge you lot to some Mario kart battle action”

They didn’t take much persuading to get involved. I looked directly at Knuckles and he just looked at me side on and smiled, dropping his harmonica carelessly to the ground, as if it had served its purpose. We only had enough tractors for my main farmyard friends. We jumped in and pulled up along side each other in a grass meadow next to the marque.

TGK shouted that we would race around the perimeter in a loop for ten laps. Everyone waved to acknowledge except knuckles who actually waved a magic wand, still trying his voodoo crap out. Handsome and Frank did seem a little distant but were still smiling and raring to go!

What happened next will come to pass a defining moment for my friends and this farm.

We started to race, but it was nothing spectacular; a load of pissed up revellers driving tractors round the edge of a field at 20 miles an hour. But then Knuckles shunted into the back of Frank The Peacock causing him to stop. Frank was leading at this point and we drove past as he came to a halt. Knuckle’s was leading and I was behind him as we carried on down towards the end of the field…. He then stopped abruptly and I went into the back of him!

What a cunt. I got out and he got out and we started rowing. He told me to chill the fuck out and it was a stupid idea to go racing in tractors. I told him our friendship was officially over and he should leave the farm for a more urban setting suited to his way of life.

He didn’t appreciate this and went to hit me. Out of nowhere TGK came driving towards us in her massive tractor… went for missile lock, took the shot quickly and fired a missile at Knuckes. He simply caught it and threw it back. TGK manoeuvred on a hard left to avoid it…. It missed her and went travelling down to the end of the field and hit Frank’s tractor!

All I saw was a massive fireball so I went charging towards it. I have never felt such emotion, as surely he would be burnt to cinder. I got to the scene and he been blown clear of the burning John Deere. There were electric blue scorched feathers everywhere but he somehow managed to still have his Luigi cap on.

He was alive but unconscious.

I knew that I needed to involve the most dreaded of people, the person that strikes fear into he hearts of livestock, the person that takes testicles and fists farm animals for gruesome gratification: I needed a vet and quickly!

Mad Harry The Vet attended the scene within minutes. He is fucking twat. In some sort of morbid way, he wares a countryside cap on back to front so he can be ‘down with the bullocks’. Then he boasts about his testcial tally on twitter. FFF must have called him up first, as he will have been listed as ‘a’ for asshole in his mobile phone I expect. Me and Mad Harry have come to blows a few times over his treatment of my children. But that’s another story. He dealt with Frank The Peacock quickly and effectively and carted him off to his animal trauma unit.

Frank will live.

But he will be at the vets for sometime. Weather he will still be the same peacock in the future time will tell. The MoD have opened a formal investigation as he must of still been on the books of Mi6.

We have caused chaos on this farm over the last couple of months with no consequences. We have behaved how we’ve wanted too, sat as judge, jury and executioner over branded gypsies and maverick vicars alike.

Long may it fucking continue too but we always had a resolution. Knuckles The Magpie thinks he owns this patch and has now caused unrecosilable damage. TGK had my back as always but his skills prevented a clean kill. I am not going to lower myself by getting a fucking cloak, some crystals and some fucking incense and taking him on Pagan style. He needs a taste of his own medicine for sure but not like that. He’s been parading this patch for too long by himself….what  he needs some company ;-)
