joie de duckie

This is all about your attitude – we expect you to have fun. That’s what you came to do but we also expect you to respect everyone else’s right to have fun. Observe the following and enjoy your Ducktime….

Le Joie:

This is the ESSENCE of Duckiness. Be a good Samaritan / non-a***hole – if someone is in trouble help them out because you never know when it might be you stuck at the side of the road. We expect you to do unto others as you would have done unto yourself – but that should be a natural so just enjoy the ride and let all other things happen as they happen.

Miles of Smiles:

For God’s sake enjoy it. This is a journey of a lifetime so be prepared to have a good time. If you feel unable to do so please contact us and we will sit you down in front of two hours of the Mike and Bernie Winters Show (ask your parents). This will ensure you do as we ask.

Play Nice:

No biting, scratching or kicking – of people or cars. Make sure your car conforms to our decency standards (we are pretty flexible – we just don’t want you to be arrested), please don’t abuse the hospitality of your hosts in each country, be sensitive, remember the drink driving laws and if there is such a thing as a designated driver policy within your team make sure he / she has a good time as well. Don’t do drugs kids – it is a hell of a lot worse being caught out there than it is here – for some reason police really hate foreign drug users. Remember Midnight Express!

Needless to say, if you or your team are caught then you will probably find yourself off the Rally and tied naked to a post in the middle of a field covered in honey with your credit card superglued to your left cheek. We would like to do horses heads but with the price of meat so high we prefer the “sweet” approach.

THE JOIE DE DUCKIE CHALLENGE

This is where you get to WIN, WIN, WIN.

It is about how you do it that counts so we are looking for the teams that embrace the spirit of the Duckie Zen.

For your efforts at decoration and fancy dress (tasteful at all times of course) your team will be rewarded with a cash prize. We wanted to do a trophy but then you would just fight over it so cash also works. We looked at Next vouchers but there is never anything in your size so split the money and have some fun.

What we are looking for is INNOVATION not artistic talent so just because Picasso wasn’t your uncle doesn’t mean you can’t win (although if he was you probably got £13million sitting on the wall of your toilet). We are also looking for ENTHUSIASM and that can be in the form of getting stuck in and just enjoying yourself.

Either way – some wedge may be yours at the end of the party so make it happen.
