Coming soon, to a cinema near you! Only joking, but it's an idea though....
To see the finer (?) points of this masterpiece, take a look at the original on Alison's Flickr page, it's best to view the large size.
By the way if you like taking photographs check out Flickr it's great fun, but we have to warn you it's highly addictive :)
This movie poster is just one of the great flickr toys created by fd who we'd like to thank for letting us use it on our website.
During the recent building work, and redecoration of the newest addition to Odihams 
selection of restaurants - 'St John' one of the builders celebrated his birthday. His colleagues were kind enough to cling film him to a lamppost and cover him in shaving foam - he was so pleased! So in the spirit of the occasion we decided to give him an extra present, a happy birthday balloon. It added the perfect finishing touch to his afternoon. Although he didn't seem quite so happy when they all went back to work and left him there!
St John has been open for several months now and comes highly recommended, the Number 81 household attended their opening night en mass and the food, and wine was fantastic. The menu changes regularly and at the time of writing this bolg post they were offering mouth-watering dishes such as pan fried scallops with pea puree and chive beurre blanc for starters, and how about Rump of lamb with boulangere potatoe, confit garlic and a madeira jus for your main followed by a dessert to die for such as Mascarpone and vanilla Panna Cotta with red fruit or the decadent St John chocolate fondant and pistachio cream. Well worth a visit if you're in the Odiham area. Fine Dining at it's best :)
This is what Wikipedia has to say about our little village (thanks to Garrett for finding this)
Odiham
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Odiham today only has a population of 4406 and is situated in Hart district council in the English county of Hampshire. Its population is only forecast to increase by 9 in 2008.
There is an RAF aerodrome to the south of the town, RAF Odiham.
I know it's small but I think the population might rise a little higher than 9 in the next 3 years!
Balloon Decorating by Cathy & Alison - 81 Red Balloons
Eighteen months ago I took over as the decorations member on the entertainments committee of a busy Sgt’s mess. Looking at previous function costs I realised that we spent a considerable amount on table and room decorations. In order to reduce costs I decided to try to source my own decorations and to arrange them myself, during a chance visit to their shop I noticed that Cathy and Alison were advertising balloons. On enquiring I discovered that not only could they easily produce the quantities required to fill the mess but that they could tailor their displays to any requirements that I wanted and that they could, in addition, do table decorations and favours and all for less than I could manage trying to source all the items myself.
A deal was struck which not only reduced my decorations budget but also allowed us to increase the amount of decorations used. On the afternoon before the event, which was our Summer Ball, the biggest event we have in the year, Cathy and Alison arrived and within a couple of hours had transformed our plain old dining room into a sea of colour. The tables were beautifully and tastefully presented with the minimum of fuss and intrusion.
On the evening and on the days following the ball I received many laudatory comments on the standard of the decorations.
Since then I have used their services for every other function that I have had. Their input to our functions has become so great that they are now included in our pre-function meetings where their suggestions and guidance are gratefully received.
Without doubt the service that Cathy and Alison provide is excellent in all respects, their professional yet cheerful and enthusiastic manner is noted by all who come into contact with them and allows me to feel confident that whatever I have asked for will be achieved without any problems.
I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending their services to anyone regardless of the size or nature of the event and indeed have done so on many occasions.

Saturday 24th of September saw the first Wine Rack in our area to be launched in their new store colours - under the 'Project Blue' scheme. The Ascot branch has been repainted, redecorated and re-launched and looked absolutely fantastic in it's new livery. The store held a wine tasting on Saturday to celebrate its new look with a guest appearance by the renowned wine expert Oz Clarke. 
We turned up to add a bit more colour to the day with a few balloons decorating the shop inside and out and took the opportunity to sample a few of the delicious wines they had on offer (purely in the name of market research of course). Over time all the Wine Rack stores will adopt the new colour scheme so keep an eye on your local branch - you won't be able to miss it. 
By the way if you're partial to a glass or two of vino then it's well worth a visit to Wine Rack, or Threshers to take advantage of a great offer that they are currently running, and which looks set to go on for quite a while - buy two bottles, get a third free - on anything. You can mix and match, buy wine, buy champagne the offer applies to everything from cheap and cheerful table wine right up to Vintage Champagne and has fuelled many a nights’ entertainment in the Number 81 household!
