Once upon a sunny lake day...

BAZINGA, James!

A little practical joke.

Once upon a sunny lake day Karen (and/or Linda) went to the lake and took James' shoes. He did not notice. Linda fed the shoes to the erm animals or creatures or what ever they could be called, monsters. The girls went for a car ride to Bloemendaal. Found a hockey court and a HUGE hill. (since when has Holland had huge hills?) Did not find the center of Bloemendaal which Scott says to be awesome and have the same shops as Haarlem. Linda thinks he is lying. Karen received an angry phone call from Scott saying James was sad about loosing his shoes at the lake. Scott said James' granny had bought the shoes for him just before leaving on exchange and the shoes meant a lot to James.

Sad Linda and Karen drove to Albert Heijn. It was closing but luckily the nice AH-boy let the girls in. As the nicest friends in the world, Karen and Linda decided to buy a little "we are sorry" -gift for James as he had to bike home without shoes. And live in the thought of loosing his shoes 4eva.

The girls bought James some tortilla chips, wine gums and beer - all James' favorite. In addition some tuna, as James is a huge fan of...John West.

The girls felt guilty of their little joke, as they had made James nearly cry, according to Scott's words.

On the other hand, the girls knew the guys surely knew how to prank back. But would they play with such a serious matter - granny and shoes?

Getting back home, shaking, the girls finally saw Scott.

Scott advised to gently go apologize as the poor baby was so sad. The girls tried.

Knock one - the door didn't open.

Knock two - still no sign of James.

Scott said maybe James was Skyping with his parents, telling about his sad loss. "Nnnoooo", the girls said.

 Knock three - no, nothing.

"Maybe James has gone back to the lake to search for the shoes?" Scott comments.

The girls decide to go to the lake and get Mr. Macca back.

One thing first - is his bike gone? No?

BLAH! They must be fooling around.

Linda and Karen decide not to go to the lake - James would come back home soon anyway.

Up the girls go with a strong thought that it is all a lie, aaaalll a lieeeee.

They smell the smell of James, see Scott, and receive the information that James is home and very annoyed by the fact that the girls had bought a tuna can referring to a previous inside joke.

Knock four - the door opens slightly.

Knock five - James opens the door. He doesn't look happy.

Until.

He can not keep his pokerface and reveals it all.

A LIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

After searching for a while on the lake, they had come to the conclusion that yes. They knew it was us.

The girls got 'bazinga'd in their own face.

What do we learn from this?

James is an expensive friend....Karen and Linda want the beer back.

Best Regards,
