The challenge for Fibbing Friday this week is to interpret these words or phrases::

1. “A few sandwiches short of a picnic” What you get when you send a hungry kid to the deli to pick up your order for the party.

2. “Bagsy” My mysterious guest in my garden a few weeks ago.  (See him HERE.)

3. “Bog-standard”  My East Indian doctor, Dr. Adnatsgob’s  door sign, seen in a mirror.

4. “Budge up”  My dad’s advice to me when I asked him for a loan.  “Nope. No way. Better budge up instead!”

5. “Chinwag” My dog’s response to the smell of a bag of McDonald’s hamburgers.

6. “Faff” That sound a can of hair spray makes when it has just run out of spray.

7. “Full Monty”  Monty Python after the cast picnic when you haven’t sent a hungry kid to the deli to pick up your order for the party.

8. “Give me a tinkle on the blower”:  Donald Trump’s entreaty at the Ritz Carlton in Moscow.

9. “On it like a car bonnet”  What you answer, pointing to your head, when a friend asks you where the bird shit on you.

10. “Tickety-boo”  What your offense is called when a cop gives you a ticket for  sneaking up behind him and scaring him.

About lifelessons

My blog, which started out to be about overcoming grief, quickly grew into a blog about celebrating life. I post daily: poems, photographs, essays or stories. I've lived in countries all around the globe but have finally come to rest in Mexico, where I've lived since 2001. My books may be found on Amazon in Kindle and print format, my art in local Ajijic galleries. Hope to see you at my blog.

      Ha.. Later caught that an changed it. Amazed Forgottenman didn’t catch it before I published it. Often he’s looking over my shoulder…from a distance. At any rate, please keep pointing out my boo boos. Easier than finding them months later and thinking how many people must have noticed them in the interim.
