    Enter a comment competition and include the word beetroot in your comment.
    Enter a photo competition and include a carrot in the photo you submit.

    This sort of thing would amuse me, if nobody else. (I must have a strange sense of humour!). I think I would chuckle to myself if I read the comments somewhere like Mumsnet and when I saw a comment including a random word like beetroot, I would think to myself that must be one of the challenge members.

    Can't help but notice the vegetable theme you appear to be developing...

    Like the idea but think something more random would be funnier

    zoombeenie

    gormangast

    newt

    that kind of thing
    Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.

    Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.
    (Wisdom, Courage, Self-control, Justice)

    Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of what you can’t change

    I was thinking about newt, but didn't want to offend your newt in any way.

    I don't think even I could get away with saying I weaned my baby on blended newt and cucumber.

    Watching a film, having a shower, life stuff and trying to get another win this month and failing miserably.
