    Love it! 'Rule of three' gives it great structure and readability. Your three section last lines are great (love the 'unbrushed teeth'!) and are important markers.

    Go on, Lisa, at least try the white water rafting. My sons did and thought it brilliant! As with so many of your drabbles, there is so much more beyond the words...but the word limit guarantees the drama :-)

    Sorry! Looking back at my comments they seem a bit like essay feedback! Glad it's made up...you had me feeling sorry for you.

    Re Rule of Three, Lisa, I think you probably use it automatically, by instinct!
