*KP Hula Hoops
Department sent to: Hooptastic department
Hi there,
Me and Dan are having a competition to try and collect all of your Hooptastic idea's from the packet's of hula hoops and we were wondering how many there were? We've got number 300, Dan reckons they go up to 500 but i'm thinking that they don't go past 348.
I also thought of a couple more ideas for you, they make great russian hats for your star wars figures, especially Luke Skywalker. It doesn't work for princess Leia though, she just looks weird!
The other idea is you get two players and two hula hoops each, you then put a hula hoop up each nostril (making sure you can still breath) and the person who lasts the longest wins all the hula hoops! The loser has to eat the four hoops that have been up the nose's. If you use salt and vinegar it's much more difficult. Our world record was set by Dan, he sat there all morning with them both up his nose, they were ready salted though.
Hope you are all marvellous!
Vince.

Dear Mr Russell,
Thank you for writing to us with you and Dan's hooptastic ideas which will be passed on to our Marketing Department.
I am not sure of the amount of hooptastic ideas but am given to understand that the amount used is not in the hundreds as you both believe.
Keep on thinking of these ideas and enjoying Hula Hoops for which purpose we have sent you vouchers so that you can treat yourselves to some more Hoops.
Yours sincerely
Mrs Diane Tunstall
Consumer Services Co-Ordinator
(enclosed was a two quid voucher for Hula Hoops)

I was wondering if you know the world record for the number of uncrunched Hula hoops in a persons mouth in one go. Not to blow my own trumpet but I managed a whole pack...!
If I had a few more I could have pushed to a pack and a half!!
If you have any ideas or suggest I enter the guiness book of records I would be grateful to hear from you!
Cheers big mouth Mike!
