Sand

Post 1

Dr Deckchair Funderlik

Suggested events involving (either primarily, or peripherally) the use of sand:

1. Looking at it.

2. Putting it in small heaps.

3. Leaving little trails of it in the form of uninteresting geometric shapes.

4. Hiding it.

5. Throwing it.

6. Throwing it at small woodland creatures.

7. Sitting in it.

8. Trying to think of something other than sand while a trained medical supervisor shouts "SAND! THINK ABOUT SAND!" quite nearby.

9. Weighing it.

10. Running really hard, then jumping into it. Oh no. Thats been thought of already.

Sand. Remember: Sand.

Who would judge whether or not the shapes were uninteresting? smiley - erm And how?...
