Kneel before ... how to ...

[dozzer19]

Pops said she couldn't kneel down and a curtsy would have to do. I informed the great and mighty one that you didn't know the official 'kneel'. She said it needed rectifying and I was to describe the technique. Apparently curtsying will not do, admin officer or not.

Here we go - down on left knee (proposal position), right arm across chest, fist touching just below left shoulder, bend slightly from hips and drop head reverentially, take five deep breaths in and out and stand. (Do it next to a table if you feel you'll have trouble getting up afterwards.)

It's similar to a Zod if you know what I mean.

YYYYYYEEEEEEESSSSSSSS ! GET IN !!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOP !!! WHOOP !!!!

Now where was I ?

Ah yes, thank you Doz. I shall practice this until I am kneel- perfect . Thank you so much for passing on your wisdom and knowledge .

That's where I was going wrong , I was doing a Zod instead of a kneel . Silly me xxxx

Note to self: when practicing regulation kneeling, make sure you've put your cup of tea down first. For added excitement, put bubble wrap on the floor first and make the neighbours think you're reenacting Gunfight at the OK Corral.

I thought for a moment you were going to use it for cushioning if you toppled over.

[AncientMum Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Good idea, didn't think of that!

[poppypug Graduate]

Okay..got as far as five breaths in and out...but my broken ribs seem to be preventing the 'stand'. So will do some ocarina practice until husband can rescue me 🙂

Zod! Yeah! Course we do ........

(wanders off to look it up )

Hope Pops has managed to get back up by now

[poppypug Graduate in reply to misswobble]

It seems I have been caught out masquerading as a deity!

[AncientMum Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Gotta get up early to get one over on Pops

[poppypug Graduate in reply to dozzer19]

Ha ha , yes you have !

Oh that word " deity ", its so bizarre as up until your return to the forum I had hardly seen it , but now it seems to be everywhere ! I was just looking through my library books last night for one to read . What did I pick up ? Drum Roll ...... " Deity " by Steven Dunne .

Cue scary music ..... Eeek ! xxx
