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! 😉 xxx
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. 😉 Hugs xx

Whahahaha! Now that is too adorable! The Mummy and his Mummy! Cute! Great entry hon! 🙂
Thanks, Sonel. Glad you thought so. 😉 Hugs xx
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!
