I’m posting thirteen sayings, one to four word statements that my Aussie hero, Seth, says.
- Blimey-words fail me.
- Bloody hell–not just hell but bloody hell, just makes it so much worse.
- Isn’t that a beaut?–isn’t this great?
- You’re still spunky–I don’t care about your age, your very attractive.
- Got hitched once–I was married before.
- I became a Surfie–I’m a surfer.
- Take the bloody thing off–take your bra off.
- A cuppa–a cup of tea.
- Rubbish–what a load of garbage
- Hold on a tick–just a minute
- karcked-it–its dead.
- Bugger it all–I’m not happy with this.
- Abso-bloody–lutely–I agree with you and will be glad to do it.
This weeks contest is for another mini surfboard. There was such a great response to the last one I offered that I decided to decorate another one.
This one has one of my hero Seth’s favorite saying: Abso-bloody-lutely.
I just finished painting it.
Just pick a number between 1 and 25 and this baby could be yours.
The winner will be announced on Sunday, August 1.
I’m gonna pick number 9 🙂
