5 letter game

Hello! 

one of my favourite word games is where you are given five letters and you need to make a sentence from it, making one word that starts with each letter, in that order. The sentence can be as correct or quirky as you wish, don't worry about grammar! It can be serious, silly or ludicrous.

You then leave five letters for another person. These five letters can be a five letter word or just five random letters, anything goes.

It often helps not to think about it too much or it starts to get hard!

For example:

S T A R T

somehow the amazon re-forrested tremendously

or,

G H J K L

giant hairy jovial kangaroos laugh

or,

M F H B E

microscopic follicles harmlessly brew elixirs

 

and here is one for you to try....

P A P E R

(and then leave a new set of five letters for the next person)

Enjoy! 🙂 Christina

Thanks, Wolfie. I had to look up Uruk, & was surprised. I don't remember that word from Tolkien's books.

Howling Owls Own Towering Scowler 

SCOWL

 

That's a very tall tower that, with no moving parts, just standing there, all innocent-like, through no fault of its own, really makes viewers scowl. Maybe, it's the way it leans. It's like it's leering down at you.

The Horrible Owls put it on their album cover.

If you look carefully, you'll see a raven atop a writing desk, balanced atop the tower, writing, of-course.

Wonderful alliteration MK! That sounds like a dramatic and foreboding album cover that will go down in music history.

(The sloth thought the owls might need a cuddle after they got a bit freaked out by their own album cover).
