Fancy a bit of fun?
Try your hand at working out what Nursery Rhymes the following initials stand for. You can get the kids and grandkids to help you.
Example: B.B.B.S.H.Y.A.W. - Baa Baa Black Sheep Have You Any Wool - get the gist?
Email (through my profile) your answers to me in the next week, then next week I'll post the answers and the winner(s).
All those who get any right can claim this badge for their blog.

Congrats on the 200th! I'm not touching that test with a 10 foot pole...
Wow, 200? That's fantastic! I have no idea how many posts I've done, but I reckon they're quite spread apart (big gaps), so probably not as many as that!
Just popping in quickly to say hello... still doing my wardrobe, and there's only a few hours before the kids' return (help! All the stuff that was where I'm building the cupboard is on their beds!!! Yikes, what am I doing sitting here???)
I only got two of your nursery rhymes straight off, but I might have a go later... I always like a bit of a puzzle.
Just a few more days of holiday, eh? Enjoy it!! (I'll answer your email later...bit tight on time just now) See you soon XX
at first glance i will get none of those right.
i'd better take a second glance....
I couldn't get any of these now but will have another go. Congrats on your 200th post :)Have a lovely weekend!
This looks fun; shame the grandchildren went home yesterday!!!
Have a wonderful weekend :o)

CONGRATS on 200 POSTS!! Isn't it amazing how they just pile up as we go along?! That's a huge number of visitors, it says how much folks are enjoying your blog! :-)
Oh dear, I have to try to remember nursery rhymes? Most days I can barely remember my name! I see a couple I know. Does anyone read nursery rhymes to kids anymore? or have tv characters taken their place?
Have a wonderful weekend away Akelamalu - you deserve it!
Thanks buffalodickdy, go on have a go! Round some kids up to help. :)

I'll give the nursery rhymes a shot, but I don't have a good feeling about it!
