a 'small' challange....

27 Sep 2010

I was given this idea and think it could be fun....
The challange is.... find a small matchbox... the one that holds about 40 matches.. not the big cooks matches one!!
And see how many small things that have a use you can fit in it....
Then next Monday we all post a pic of them ( or a list in my case cos I have no idea how to post a pic in forum)
the prize for the most is a cyber minxy hug ( a special booby one for the ladies ;) )

Ohhhh a competition with a fab prize!
Not that i have a competative streak

Nor do I. In fact, I would bet that my competative streak is significantly smaller than yours.

Do the items have to all be in there at the same time or can they be removed and then replaced with the next item?
(Can't believe I missed this challenge in the Brownies... oh... wait... actually... yeah, I know why I missed it at Brownies... I got kicked out for being insolent. Oh well! Win some, errrr, win some! lol

)

I filled mine with Quarks, i got a few hundred billion in my matchbox.
i did originally fill it with Guhaons, but as they're kinda theoretical, i decided they might not count wink

do i win, i packed em real tight? :mrgreen:

Look, I admitted to being kicked out of the Brownies, so how was I meant to know? And I wanted to know the rules before I went ahead and blatently broke them!
If you think I have so little to do that I am willing to sit and count grains of sand just to win, you have another thing coming. *blows raspberry* :P
(32,647 by the way :smug: )

see my post and divide it by a few thousand or summut.
atoms are made up of particles like neutrons and protons- these are formed by composite quarks ( i.e. lots of quarks make one atom)......so i beat'cha flipa
