MindReader and I are carving a pumpkin. We also did this last year, so obviously this year I had to do something different.
“Don’t look don’t look don’t look,” I say, as MindReader peers at the laptop screen. “I’m using a template and I want you to guess what it is when I’ve carved it.”
“Oh my God,” he says. “Pressure.”
He smiles and sips his coffee, resuming watching the football.
“Er, Billygean – ” he says, a moment later. “You’ve carved so much that you’re going to cut all of the side of the pumpkin out.”
“No I’m not,” I say.
“Er, you are,” he says, his face cracking into a smile.
“I’m not,” I say, my eyes darting to the laptop and back.
“Are you sure?”
“Ye-es…” I say, just as the entire side of the pumpkin falls out.
So. MindReader couldn’t guess. Can you guess what it’s supposed to be?!

My hand looks HUGE

A cat? Jabba the Hut? Ummmm, I was never very good at guessing games.
going with the cat, maybe a *very* pointy eared one? else you’re suddenly a fan of strange lizards
A cat or a witch on a broom? It’s ok, everyone gets a “do-over”.
Did it snow there?
A MONKEY!
It’s a cat, well done to everyone who guessed, I knew my blog readers knew me better than MindReader!!
It has snowed a bit yes justmeandb, very unusual for October here.
