I see that there’s a weekly photo challenge on WordPress. As the theme for this week is “unusual,” I decided to post my most unusual Mother/Son photo, taken whilst on a Nile cruise many years ago. What a fun evening the Saturday night fancy dress party was. I even got to do a bit of Belly Dancing. 
There was a competition which involved wrapping a person in umpteen yards of toilet roll, until they were completely ‘mummified’. Our teenage son was the chosen ‘victim’ of a pert young lady who was at that time the reigning ‘Cotton Queen’ in her Texan home town. They won first prize, and I got to be the ‘Mummy’s mummy’. 
I felt just like Salome that night, but you’ll be relieved to know that I didn’t demand anyone’s head on a platter.
Haha! Good play on words – love your photo, and your outfit! Was very impressed by those amazing belly muscles of yours, too, AD
Thanks, Zabwan. You should have seen the whole outfit!

I’d love to! My daughters’ belly-danced for awhile (so did I
) the bast part was the outfits! Loved all the jingly wraps! xxx
A great photo – you must have lots of fun wrapping and unwrapping the mummy.
Yes we did. As you can imagine, the whole dance floor was covered in toilet paper at the end.
the mummy has such a glamorous mummy
Hehehe. I do my best.
Hahaha. I could have bashed you with many toilet roll middles.
Fantastic! And definitely unusual.
Only, it shouldn’t have been toilet paper. It should have been Nile-on!
*escapes just in time to avoid being bashed by cross mummy*
Thanks for the visit, Francine. No I don’t remember midnight buffets, but it sounds like a lot of fun and far too much eating.
Hugs to you.
Great photo. I remember those fun occasions on the cruise ships. Their plan events always were a joy to take part in or just watch. Do you remember the Midnight buffays?
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
Glad you liked it, 68.
It was a great evening.
That’s a cute photo
I’m sure much fun was had by all!
It was a lot of fun, Hopestar.

Your poster should have read: The Mummy’s Yummy Mummy!
Thanks, twolips.
It was a really fun filled evening. One I will never forget. xxx
Even his own mother wouldn’t recognise him.
Hilarious!
