One-Off Challenge 27: Moon The Neighbours

The challenge

Moon the neighbours.


While the challenger may be a mystery, the challenge isn't. I've got to go shake my arse at the neighbours. Now, you may recall that one of my criteria for these challenges is that they don't get me fired or, for that matter, arrested then fired. Thus, before this challenge making the list, the mystery challenger and I agreed that the neighbours didn't have to actually see  me moon them, reducing the risk of arrest.

But I'm not about to have this just be a simple challenge of no interest, so I'm adding a rule for myself. I've got to be outside. Renae and I have a running joke in our house that the "kitchen window doesn't count". If we were counting the number of times I've scuttled through the kitchen, day and night, junk out, we'd have ticked this challenge off months ago!

Doesn't count. It's official, you know.
Outside it is, then. But, even though we're making this challenge more risky than it might be, I'm not keen on getting busted, butt-out.  To reduce the chances of that, we're doing it at night (appropriate for the moon) and I'm going to be tucked into our driveway, which has a good view of our neighbours across the street but is shielded from the road in case of passing vehicles.

Ready, steady...
Drop trou!

Too much! Too soon...!

Challenge complete!





Will I be doing it again?

Not unless they really piss me off.

One-Off Challenge 22: Skinny Dip

Image
One of my rules of my challenges is that they're suspended when I'm on holiday.  Unfortunately, while it's the school holidays and we've got Renae's mum, step-dad and brother staying with us, I'm not on holiday, so the challenges continue unabated! This challenge is courtesy of... Matt Boyce. The challenge Skinny dip.  No specifics, so I'm taking this to be swimming naked somewhere public.  No other restrictions. Challenge accepted. This is probably not how you expect a skinny dipping challenge to start, but yesterday I was at a kid's birthday party... Listen, don't dial that third '9', just put the phone down and hear me out. OK, our nephew Charlie turned 6 yesterday.  As his party, he chose "cake in the woods".  It was pretty much what you might expect.  Cake.  In the woods.  The woods being Roslin Glen Country Park.  There was cake.  There were party games.  There was lots of splashing about in the river. The d

Challenge 2: Learn To Draw

My pre-course drawings.  The bottom one is a bagel, in case you can't tell. So, what's this challenge all about? When I was at school (many, many years ago now), there were three things that never came naturally to me and to which I did not apply myself.  They were art, music and foreign languages.  (PE never really came naturally either, beyond a certain degree of competence at catching balls, but I enjoyed it enough to at least try.)  Of those three subjects, I've always quietly regretted not putting the effort into French.  I took it to Standard Grade, but no further.  I dropped it because it was hard and I wasn't great at it.  But this entry isn't about French, it's about art.  Did I regret dropping that even before Standard Grade level? Well, no.  Because I knew I was bad at art.  I knew I couldn't draw.  How did I know?  Seven years of primary school art classes on a Wednesday afternoon is how.  Seven years of boredom and disappointment as my

Challenge 1: Learn French

So, what's this challenge all about? I mentioned last entry that there were three things I wasn't good at in school: art, music and foreign languages. We've covered art in the learn to draw challenge, now it's time for SPEAKING LOUDLY AND SLOWLY TO JOHNNY FOREIGNER. Unlike art, I did do French up to Standard Grade, but, if I'm being honest, that was only because I had to take it that far. French never grabbed me. Whether it was something about the method of teaching, the late start (I was in S1 before I ever darkened the door of a second language) or just teen-aged laziness, French never spoke to me. In return, I only ever grunted monosyllabicly back in an accent best described as "not French". Come the end of S4, I dropped it and never looked back.  Until a year and a half later.  Instead of doing sixth year at my school, I did a year in high school in the states via a cultural exchange programme where I went there and no one came here. (I
