Okay, I've been very good and worked hard all day. Time to reward myself with a meme.

Post anonymously, give me three clues to who you are, and let's see if I do any better on this than I did on the text message game...

When I imagine the sleeping face, I think of the peacefully sleeping TV that mooism drew on the scribbling wall at our housewarming. And the similar one on the tin of chocolates. But I'm not sure. Are you an Amazonian tribesman? They have blowpipes...

This sounds like the start of a story, by the way - I haven't a clue what's going on with the Poland thing, but it's intriguing. It's a bit Jeff Noony.

The Poland thing is that my grandmother was born in Poland, but her birthplace is now in Austria. Obviouly places can't sent text messages, and it's unlikely to emmigrate in my lifetime, but creative licence and all that :-)

The blowpipe was the only way I could think of affecting the advert.

D'oh, you have Polish ancestry, I knew that. *kicks self*

I like the idea of towns sending text messages. They certainly have personalities. Do you think London is male or female?

Hmm. The personification of London would be an absent-minded high-achiever: The sort of person who at half past five on a Sunday afternoon, after another hard day's work, suddenly remembers that they'd been meaning to go to the shops, and now has nothing to eat for dinner.

Don't know whether that would be male or female. The Thames sounds male (Old Father Thames), but London could be gay, or they might just be good friends...

Hmm, yes, London lives in its head, and that's why it's always grumpy. Sugar crashes.

I think London is male, but so is the Thames, so either they're gay lovers or old chums.

They are brothers! The Thames suffers from a long-term illness, so London is generously putting him up in his spare room.
