A few pictures of the maze. Olivia and Amanda asked to help on this on the Saturday and were told they only wanted French speaking volunteers :(

The envelope for the Iron Man Competition contained the following balloons (I think!).

Orange 646
Robins Egg 646
Red Mouse head
geo blossom wildberry
pink quick link 6"
pink 321
orange 321
pearl red heart 6"
260's in Pink, Dark Blue, winter green, Caribbean blue, neon green, lilac, wildberry, ivory, red
160 white, mandarin orange, black

Have I missed any?!

So you have 45 minutes to make something. All balloons accidentally popped can be replaced.
For a better feeling of how it was, you will need loud pumping music, not much space but a table in front, lights turned off at various points and generally bad lighting. Pens pumps and cutting things are allowed.
And go!

Here are the official rules as posted on the Millenium Jam website...

Thanks for the details Danny,
I did ask Michelle from Qualatex if there was a list so that when we get to posting the pictures some at home might like to try to see what they can come up with.

The fortune teller getting made, Sean Rogers made this, he also made the lion as his competition entry that I will post later.

Thelma working away on the hat.

Sean Rooney making some lobby décor.
Paul pretending he only drinks orange juice ;)
Louise decided to show Thelma some face paining techniques, the only problem was Thelma had had a drink or two, it was funny.
