Glenn Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 It would be fun to continue this through December '07. 2nd day of Christmas on Dec 1 and 2. The 2nd day of Christmas is 2 things + the one thing.... 3rd day of Christmas on Dec 3 and 4. The 3rd day of Christmas is 3 things + the 2 things ..... 4th day of Christmas on Dec 5 and 6. The 4th day of Christmas is 4 things + the 3 things.....etc Post your entry with the previous "days" entry you thought was the best. For instance if there are several replies to day 5, when you post your entry for day 6, followed by the day 5 entry, we understand that day 5 entry was the one you thought was the best of the day 5 group. Let me get it started with the following. On the 1st day of Christmas my true love gave to me... An anvil that weighed more then me. On the 2nd day of Christmas my true love gave to me... What would you suggest for the second day? You have Midnight Dec 3 to post your entry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BT Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 On the 3rd day of Christmas my true love gave to me... 3 swage blocks 2 pairs of tongs An anvil that weighed more than me. For the record here are the original lyrics:Twelve drummers drumming, Eleven pipers piping, Ten lords a-leaping, Nine ladies dancing, Eight maids a-milking, Seven swans a-swimming, Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings, Four calling birds, Three French hens, Two turtle doves, And a partridge in a pear tree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnW Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 The original words definitley help. 3 swage blocks fits real well right there, where x punches punching fits better as a later line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
