Im just home after an incredible few days, Thanks to everyone who made it so awesome.

Just back from The Millennium Jam, thanks to all who make it all possible.
It was a very busy addition with many people, a few minor niggles but all in all another fab time.

My major dis-appointment, being promised a beer and a cream cake from Daniel and then he did not come over to chat with me.

Here is a panoramic photo of the incredible Maze at TMJ, not sure how many balloons it took to build this because I heard various different figures, however its between between 100,000 and 130,000 balloons.

Thats pretty impressive Graham

And the first few,  Paul and Thelma waiting for the taxi Friday morning. The newspaper Olivia made up for her stage show entry.
Some advertising around the venue for TMJ, Thelma and I made it onto one of the posters............yes we did!
We are bottom left, I'm taking a picture of Thelma keeping the jam room tidy  

This is the close up.

More from the advertising boards.

I put together a movie of the maze and its secret rooms - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdOHU0Auif8

Last of the banners.

I woke early on the first day so went for a walk by the lake, looking back at the hotel and holiday complex.

It was another great Millenium Jam!

I loved seeing old friends from around the world and making new friends too. I didn't attend as many classes I perhaps I originally planned but spent time in the Jam room and with wonderful pals.
Being with other people in the business and chatting away I learnt some fab tips too.

I took part for the first time in the Iron Man Latex competition, where everyone gets the same balloons and has 45 minutes to make something using all the balloons. The rest of the non participating people then vote by placing a ticket in the envelope. The first ten minutes I had no clue what to make, so I laid out all the balloons to see what there was. Mousehead, heart, geoblossom, 321's 160's 260's and 350's plus a 646. What would you make?!
 I don't think I got any tickets or votes , but I was just pleased to have used all the balloons in the time and made something I was pleased with! It was a great experience that I probably wouldn't repeat!
 

I'm trying to get the list of balloons that went into the Iron Latex man envelopes, so when we post the pictures people can see what the choices were.
Some might like to try and make something with the balloons to see what might be possible?

After my walk around the lake I came back and twisted for a little while before breakfast, the stand for the swan I thought might make a nice flower.
The fox started out to be a tiger/lion head but the balloons took me on a different journey.
