    Ava :))
    Never heard of a car called Astar, and never saw movie "Aye Din Bahar Ke".
    Like CP, reminded of that game; nowadays you get a much more complicated one.

    CP - You know a couple of years back I was travelling to Jamnagar with my kids on train and we played name,place,animal,thing. The weird thing was, I was still thinking of the same responses that came readily to my mind when I was a kid.

    Hey! 'A' was easy! I had to actually google up stuff when I was doing mine! ('K') Haven't come across anyone so far, who did this tag with a Q or a Y or Z! I wonder how they'll do it! @-)

    Val - Can you do this tag? I guess V is not as bad as an X

    Hi first time here on your blog.
    Simply loved your easy style.
    For some reason I find tags hard to do. Currently sitting on 2 of them.

  28. AvaWednesday 26 August 2009 at 07:58:00 GMT+5:30

    Daz = V is still ok. I can think of a colour - Violet, Car= Verna, names of kids etc. But X and Z and W should hard I feel.

    Aparna - Thanks dearie. I rarely get tags, so I dont find them too hard.

    Aargh! How did you realise I was "not called Xerces"? Foiled, gotta change my alias! Do you like alliteration?

    The ultimate in using the same alphabet "V for Vendetta".

    http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/V_for_Vendetta_%28film%29#Dialogue

    I just luv'd it. And nonsense rhyme too..

    "I passed by the garden and marked with an eye"
    "how a moth tried to be a butterfly"
    (my last post)

    Since, you have brought up names, can't stop now, I'm off to write a post on a "turtle called Myrtle" (my next post).

    I missed V for Vendetta though it was said to be a good movie. Will try to catch it. It is rare that movies come up with something original.

    Turtle called myrtle. I will chase her too.
