Steparoo's Big Adventure

I'm sorry for the lack of posting this week. Trouble is, I've been pissing my sides laughing so hard that I've been unable to sit still long enough to use a keyboard since the weekend.

That is, since I saw This.

Steparoo the Smokefree Kangaroo. ?? WTF??? etc???

Steparoo the Smokefree Kangaroo is touring the North West to encourage smokers to Take 7 Steps Out from their home when smoking to protect the health of their families. For more information visit take7stepsout.co.uk.

Please do. Please, please visit Take Seven Steps Out. It's the biggest pile of anti smoking rubbish in one place that you are likely to see. All brought to us, using our money, by the righteous at Smokefree Northwest.

In the meantime, let's meet Steparoo and find out what he (she/it) has been up to lately. Are we sitting comfortably, boys and girls?

It seems Steppy the Righteous Kangaroo has been to Warrington.

The guys from Smokefree North West asked me and Lil’ Roo along to their roadshow one last time to help the spread the word to Take 7 Steps Out. The roadshow visited every county across the NW and along the way we met some really bonza people!

"Bonza" people. We're not trying to get down with the kids are we? By the way, I thing Steppy is a single mom as there's no mention or a Mr Roo.

Warrington Borough Councillor Mike Biggin (Might be a name worth looking into) and some of the helpful people from NHS Warrington’s Stop Smoking Service came by to lend a hand. Sheila and Linda from Warrington Smokefree Families also stopped by to help out and tell people all about their new scheme. They are asking people to pledge to make their homes smokefree and in return not only will people protect their family but also receive a free information pack- sounds rad!

Sounds Rad? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha oh fucking hell, here I go again ha ha ha ha ha ha gis a minute *gulp*

I was so excited when Rugby League Challenge Cup winner Wolfie from Warrington wolves stopped by to support the campaign. Everyone wanted their photos taken with us- we were the Kylie and Jason of Warrington- I felt like a superstar!


My favourite part of the day though had to be when glamorous gran Joy, stopped by for a chat. Joy hadn’t heard about Take 7 Steps Out until her grandkids Leigha and Jake who had seen the advert asked their gran to start smoking outside. Joy now Takes 7 Steps Out before she lights up and even has a chair 7 steps away from the back door, what a beaut idea!

*Boggle*. Glamorous Gran Joy should have told the little brats to knob right off. Another perfect example of how we are training our kids to dictate adult lifestyle.

What a load of hogwash.

I'm sure there will be plenty more from Stroppy The Righteous Kangaroo in the future.

Stay in school kids!
