wangs, swear words and beer. although I dabbled in a little politics this past week but that could be probably be filed under wangs.
ReplyDeleteI'm completely stealing this idea! Don't worry I'll give you full credit for the brilliance of sharing with the world all the topics in my house this week. I'm sure everyone will be rivetted!

ReplyDeleteThanks Al, gets you thinking back over your week, I like these. xx
So I really can't relate to the alien topic, but the toilet and wee topic, er, YES. What is it? A competition to see how much yellow we can leave on the floor? Or is it complete lazyness.
ReplyDeleteMy mind boggles.
LOVE this idea by the way :-) xx
Great post. I could not stop talking about the News International phone hacking saga. Especially about Wendi Murdoch's slap down.
ReplyDeleteMoving house. Where to live? Which school? Sticks. Thunderstorms. Kookaburras. Do kookaburras like thunderstorms? Why do we only read The Enchanted Wood at night time? Blogs. Writing groups. Facebook status updates. Offspring. Harry Potter. Skipping Girl Vinegar. Eggs.
ReplyDeleteThese are the main topics that spring to mind. Love this idea. I found it cathartic
I used to love these.

Lack of carbs, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (snap), Cadel, economies of the world, ovens, blackheads, sheep that live in trolleys and mow lawns, P.G Wodehouse, flannelette sheets, bare-rooted trees, Spagasaurus, tax and where does great great great great great great (They keep going on...) grandma live?

What a fabulous idea. Although in my state of self inflicted tiredness all I can think of is:
ReplyDeleteTour de France, Cadel, Peloton, sleep, tiredness, what day is it?
