We went to this party. Some friends of ours got a new house and it was their house-warming party.
The hostess insisted we play games. First she started us with communal singing whilst she played the piano. Then charades. Then a new game which she had invented.
She had a pack of cards which she had made. On each card was a question which we had to answer and then discuss.
Stupid questions like do you put on your left or your right sock first? Do you prefer to shower or bath?
Being a mischievous person her questions were a touch too personal for my liking. You know me, I'll answer any question you ask me in the comments box, but some of the questions in her game were too personal.
For instance, what is the last thing you do before going to sleep at night?
Some people said they brush their teeth. Some said they put on their face cream and moisturising cream. Some were more uninhibited and described how they said good night to their partners affectionately.
I mean ... there is a limit to what one should say in mixed company, surely?
For the record, last thing I do before going to sleep is to check the park is empty. I would hate it if there's someone in a nearby bench sleeping there and he could steal my shoes whilst I'm asleep.
I then close my eyes and reflect on why I got thrown out of my home again.
What is the last thing you do before going to sleep?
