Friends arrive at leavers’ do in cardboard limo STUDENTS turned up at their leavers' do in a limousine - made from cardboard! Four lads from the upper sixth form at St Wilfrid's CE High School and Technology College, Blackburn, came up with the wacky idea to make sure their goodbye was memorable. They 'wore' the prop - reminiscent of the Ant Hill Mob in the Bulletproof Bomb in Wacky Races - and 'drove' up the drive at the Dunkenhalgh Hotel in Clayton-le-Moors on Friday. And Aidey Brooks, Jonny Nelson, Danny Crossland and James Cape's custom-made "limousine" turned more heads than the genuine article. Complete with personalised number plate, the cardboard car proved a big hit with the students, many of whom had arrived in - fully automated - stretch limousines and other glamorous transports such as pink Cadillacs. Natasha Blows, one of the three outgoing deputy head girls at the Duckworth Street school, said: "It was a complete surprise when they turned up in the cardboard car. None of us could believe it. "The lads had made the car in a secret place at school, and hadn't mentioned it to anybody. I think they just wanted to arrive in something a bit different, and they definitely achieved that!" More than 140 students, all aged 17 and 18, enjoyed a sit down dinner followed by a disco at the Dunkenhalgh to mark the end of their secondary school years. Natasha, 18, said: "It was a great night, although quite a late one - I haven't spoken to the lads since, so I'm not sure what happened to their car!" |
