Please feel free to create a post yourself with your three things challenge and pingback to Rory!
I have posted a list of some of the other bloggers at the end of this post. Have a little lookie for more Friday fun!
Name three things…
You can dunk in tea or coffee?
Party Ring biscuits – ooooh go on then!
Churros (well dunking them in hot chocolate would be a better idea)
Hob-nobs – the marines of the biscuit world (nod to Peter Kay)
You can enjoy at a carnival?
Face-paint – it’s not often that you have a legitimate excuse for face paint
Dressing up in clothes as if you are part of a cabaret act
Carnival capers like jumping up on a passing float and grabbing the microphone
You can’t enjoy when it’s windy?
Walking out of the hair dressers after spending £80 on a cut and blow dry with a senior stylist
Sweeping up the leaves off the drive-way (as soon as you have finished you turn around and the drive is covered with leaves again!)
Wearing a wrap-round skirt – Goldfinch says nobody will mind!
Your body can’t do?
Fit into the jeans I wore as a teenager
Pull-ups – my upper arms are so weak!
Keepie-uppies (I used to back in the day, but I am absolutely hopeless at them now…use or lose your soccor skills) – you all know what keepie uppies are don’t you?
You don’t learn at school?
How to deal with probate
How to change nappies
How to book a holiday
You can put onto a pizza?
Black olives
Rocket (or artichoke)
Pesto (instead of a tomate pasata)
You can eat with?
Chopsticks
Knife & Fork
Spoons
You don’t suggest you do at home blindfolded?
Use the Sabatier knives – I cut my fingers every other day even without a blindfold
Put your undies on
Ironing – it won’t work well, for so many reasons
That are important to you?
Life
Time
Love
That you love to do at the beach?
Get my feet wet
Run my fingers through the sand
Play games like football with a big gang of friends
That you do in the morning?
Eat breakfast
Brush my teeth
Have a shower
That you do every time you log in to your blog?
Click that little bell sign in the top right corner to look at the notifications: comments, likes, follows etc and then try to answer any comments.
Click onto WP Reader and look through the posts of other readers
Check out the writing prompts and see if I have any ideas for posts

We have parenting classes in our high school and all students take a class where they are assigned a doll for the week that has to be treated like a real child. Still doesn’t prevent kids in 7th grade from getting pregnant (13ish). There is a new requirement called financial literacy that covers everything from paying bills, budgets, and planning for one’s death. They have birth and death covered, but they forgot about everything in between lol. Schools are taking up the slack for bad parenting. Great answers 🙂

Some bloke walked up Everest this year (not to the very top, but a good trek nonetheless) doing keepie-uppies. I will try to find a link about it. He was BBC Breakfast show a while back.

Reblogged this on A Guy Called Bloke and K9 Doodlepip! and commented:

blindfold

It’s true, putting your undies on at night in the dark is awkward enough – okay not undies, boxers, back in my day undies were undies! The amount of times l have put the damn things on backwards is untrue and found myself walking with back slightly upwards l lose count! Then that panic when you need to go for a pee, just don’t ask!!
Excellent answers 🙂

In my old job I used to have get up before 5am to get ready for work. Bright lights seem painful at that time of the morning so I would get dressed in the dark.
20% of the time I would realize at work that my “undies” were on inside out or back to front!

Yep can totally relate, l used to have to start really early when l was married and got dressed in the dark. I even used to lay them on a flat surface the night before so l would remember, but most nights l went to bed late, got up a few hours later and then forgot the strategy and simply turned them around put them on … and the rest is history 🙂

It makes me wonder how many people are walking round London with their underwear inside-out or back-to-front!
I am still working on the sunshine blogger post…hopefully it will be ready to post over the weekend. The last three days have been work days so I have a lot to catch up on.
