Hi all,

I hope nobody minds but on one of my husbands gaming sites they play this game called three little words. It makes a big story. What happens is that each person participates in the story but can only add three words. So, for example I might put 'one day a' and then the next person might put 'lonely little quaker' and the next could put ' opened his cage' etc etc. It's great because no-one knows how the story will go or where it will end. Each person can add three words only but can keep adding three words again after someone else if they want to.

It take any turn or twist that you like and it can be on any subject (not just quakers). It's a great game and the story can go in any direction. Sometimes they can turn out to be hilarious.

So please join in, here goes with the first three words,

'ONCE THERE WAS.......'

...a great big ...

spinach eating, ogre.

Once there was a great big cuddly Quaker parrot...

to be bothered

(Good game! This is always fun, we used to play it in improv and the stories always got wacky)

Once there was
