Rehearsal?

I think I mentioned a raft about a month ago (!). Well, here it is. Its passengers have been fired (in an oven) and are now being glued aboard so that they're ready and secure for the real photo-shoot, which will take place as soon as the weather permits.

Purple Man over the far side is armed with a cocktail stick in order to steer the raft away from perils such as rocks or giant tubes of glue.
