I had a Busy Day
Coming home after a week chasing Toyboys visiting blogging friends, staying with Elly and seeing relations, leaves me with plenty of chores to do. I did a bit of this
Then I had to do a bit of that
Then I took a run down here…
And finally I have started to make a list…
You see the post arrived while I was out and I found a little package lying in the hall. Do you want to know what was in it?
Thanks to Will for the idea, for organising them and these last two images.
What do you think?

The look on his face says “proud to be a toyboy”.
Welcome back grannymar…did you have much trouble pushing all those trollies?
Grannymar said,
June 18, 2008 at 9:31 pm
Steph - glad I was missed!
Baino - My badges would be no good for you with my name on them, unless you want to send the Toyboys over here!
Mike I get the Toyboys to push the trolly!

mm! I wondered if you were referring to the trolleys or the person to their rear!
Welcome back…don’t think my tongue would be long enough to sport a badge….not even a lavenar coloured one. Anys I’m too old!

Mike Kelly said,

Dead right grannymar
I’ve a PHD in pushing trollies by the way
Grannymar said,
June 18, 2008 at 10:06 pm
Keith - are you offering to push the trolly?
Magpie - My Toyboys are ageless and the badges are actually a very nice blue.
Darren - Now let me think about it
Grannymar said,
June 18, 2008 at 10:11 pm
Mike - have you one for washing dishes too?
Mike Kelly said,

Mike Kelly said,

Well Do I make the grade?
Grannymar said,
June 18, 2008 at 10:22 pm

Mike Kelly said,

Grannymar said,

Mike
I need a gardener, a painter, a DIYer and goodness what else…. Interviews next week
Mike said,
June 18, 2008 at 10:53 pm
I’ll dust down the CV
Do I need to wear a tie?
Grannymar said,
June 18, 2008 at 10:56 pm
Mike
Don’t forget the shirt with it and polish the backs of your shoes as well as the toes
Mike said,
June 18, 2008 at 11:00 pm
Do I have to wear shoes! I thought I’d get away with just a tie
Grannymar said,
June 18, 2008 at 11:02 pm
Mike
So long as you don’t turn up with sandals and socks!
Phil said,

Hope you enjoyed your trip to the South.
I hope I will get a badge on Sat!
See you then.

My, my. How brilliant are those?
Excellent idea Mr Knott and GM. Laughed out loud when I saw them.

Fab idea, you don’t mind if I borrow (steal) it? thanks
Grannymar said,
June 19, 2008 at 9:50 am
The badges are a novel idea and Will Knott is the person who came up with it.
Welcome Flirty, I didn’t think you were old enough for badge like mine!

I see the boys are queing up for these, lucky lady
David said,

I’m not much use at gardening, painting or DIYing. How’s about I find you a sonnet??
Grannymar said,
June 19, 2008 at 10:24 am
Sinead ~ I wonder if i’ll have enough
David ~ Will you write the sonnet yourself?
David said,
June 19, 2008 at 10:37 am
I can certainly try… lol. With questionable results.
Grannymar said,
June 19, 2008 at 10:39 am
David ~ The Lord and GM love a tryer!
Maz said,
June 19, 2008 at 11:54 am
They are fantastic. I bet all the boys will be fighting over them!! They made me smile.
Keith said,
June 19, 2008 at 12:27 pm
Well, pushing shopping trollies isn’t entirely dissimilar to driving a rally car, so…
Grannymar said,
June 19, 2008 at 2:15 pm
Right Girls I need your help! What do you think the boys should do to earn a badge?
Keith ~ I didn’t know rally cars had wheels all going in different directions.

Must take a photo of me and my badge for the blog, although my wife would have something to say about sharing her toyboy
Grannymar said,
June 22, 2008 at 10:45 am
Donncha
That is a wonderful idea, each recipient have a photo taken wearing the badge and popsted on their blog and linked here!
