Everyone writes their names on the bottom of a rubber duck. These are released from the bridge, and the first duck to make it to the waterfall wins!

Peanut

the duckies are ready to launch, Jimmy is in a prime start position, the spectators are watching in anticipation

the canon goes off, the duckies are launched, just as Mother Duck catches up with Geggs and gives him a prod from behind

Peanut hits the deck again, this time not literally, what is with the canon smiley - headhurts, gets to feet, who is going to win the duck race,

is it going to be Jimmy, or the Gentlemanly Duck, an outsider duck or is it going to be Geggs smiley - bigeyes
