    I have just seen this game on facebook.

    The item on your immediate right is the only item you can use as a weapon in a zombie apocalypse.....what is it?

    In my case it's a leopard print cushion...guess I am going to have to hold them down and smother them with it lol

    Is anyone else going to play?:beer:

    A geriatric mobile phone (though not a nokia brick which would be good for beating them to death!) :o

    :D I'm game. I have a hardback copy of Robert Jordan's Towers of Midnight sitting on my pooter tower to cut down an irritating vibration. It's 2.5 inches thick and prolly weighs a kilo. Could deffo brain a zombie with that.

    Ackshully, I really ought to get around to reading it and get it back to my brother, from whence I borrowed it, but then I'd be stuck for something to keep the vibes down........

  • In my case it's a post it note with the details of our flu jab clinic on it, I suppose I could make a paper aeroplane with a pointy nose in extremity but I don't think it would be very effective!!!!! Cheers Lyn xxx.

    Glad to say, to my right is a tall brass pariffin light stand, that should keep the zombie's at arm's length.

    My Stripey Cat!! He's quite a big chap - think I would just have to hurl him, but he might be rather surprised.....and he would only attack a zombie if it tried to tickle his tummy. Probably unlikely?

    A Dot to Dot calender here or the computer speakers. I think the calender is heavier.

    I have a ruler on my left, can I use that? :D
