Round 3 of the word game – not too easy

by

“Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my favourite things.”

Today’s word, in case you haven’t guessed, is wrapping paper.

Here are two attempts from me:

“What really angered Parcel Post in New Galloway – properly angered people – electric ribbon.”

“When rogues and pesky pirates instigate new gambles, pacifists and pangolins everywhere retreat.”

Hope you’ll have the time to have a go. Perhaps you could come up with a brand new sentence, or else improve either one, or both, of the above.

Here’s a word game as the year ends

by

Wreath

Time is proving hard to catch hold of at this time of year, so here’s a plan to help see The Phraser through to the end of its 365 days of blogging.

The idea is that the post on each of the remaining days will be of something related to the season. There will be a photograph with a word beneath it, and the challenge will be to make a sentence using words starting with each of the letters in the name of the item in the image. Today, for example, the image is a wreath – W R E A T H.

Here is a sentence linked to those letters. Hope you might try too, if you have the time. There must be better ideas out there than the one below.

W – Will R – robin – E – eat – A – all – T – the – H – holly

Will robin eat all the holly?

Thanks for reading. Tomorrow the word will be a little trickier.
