    Do tell? Just after eating a lovely stew and saying to mammy mmm again ? :eek:

    Mammy mmm again? I hope that's hypothetical and not in-fact the way you talk. :P

    I think I'll decline on the offer to tell, I don't want to corrupt your innocent minds. :D

    And its direct speech as well so would make it even funnier. One of my friends, i'm not sure under what title, but he went off on a tangent about a pink nissan micra! Lmao! And in maths for one question, it was something like, t is a positive real number. Hence or otherwise, find t. He went off and wrote an a4 page essay about how using the process of elimination the answer had to be 2. I rofl'd!!!

    No as in:

    I woke up in my comfy and cozy bed and pushed the soft cuddly covers down from my soft red cheeked face as I terminated my vexing bright red alarm clock which annoyingly "buzzed" like a bee. I am a rocket shooting out of bed.

    Included is:
    Simile- like a bee (comparison)
    Speech marks- ""
    Onomatopoeia- describing the sound buzz
    Alliteration- words starting with the same letter
    Metaphor- in the line "I am a rocket" (comparison)

    Good luck anyway!

    Ha scene and cheeper.I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't laugh!:p

    Some of the houses were actually really good value.There were ones going for just over 200,000 and my brother said that they were nearly 500,000 a few years ago!Now that's some saving!
