What manly things have you done today?

I scratched my chin while surveying the garden, thinking about plans and schemes.

I ate a fried breakfast with many manly rashers of bacon, and a bit of black pudding.

Depends on which bits you scratched

CMOTGilbertBlythe · 20/03/2015 23:35

Nope, it was true oak hewn by burly men. I think.

fattymcfatfat · 20/03/2015 23:35

my man bits obviously!

HerrenaHarridan · 20/03/2015 23:36

I helped my friends neighbour manoeuvre 2 sofas through the window

That definitely counts!

I listened to the pet shops boys and grilled some haloumi Grin

I watched the Frozen film I borrowed a couple of weeks ago. Now I can't stop singing, and want an Elsa dress.
Is this too manly and wrong?

My DH ran/walked(/staggered) 2.5 miles through our village, starting at a pub, finishing at a pub and visiting two other pubs en route, quaffing a pint at each in the annual Beer Run. Very manly stuff.

But then the DDs and I ran it too (though the younger Falfurias drank squash), so we are also manly.

DH gets extra manly points for running in jeans and lace-ups instead of running gear. Because he's so tough, you understand, not because he doesn't own any trainers or anything.

I laughed at my DS's loud trump.

read mumsnet...?

Drank beer, scratched my bollocks and farted.

In that order

DontTellTheWife · 16/04/2015 22:21

Read article stating willy is generally 3 times the size of your thumb.

Rode 500cc motorbike through heavy London traffic like a pro.

Ordered twelve rolls of gaffer tape

Inspected several damaged vehicles for repair with considerable associated manly tutting.

Drank only one beer showing manly restraint.

Measured thumb.

Threw yet another letter away from The Guinness Book of Records: Thumb Dept

Spent part of afternoon painting wood preserver on the manly garden shed, in a very manly fashion.
Minus points though (I suspect) for listening to Doris Day's greatest hits on a ghetto blaster whilst I did it. Love "Move Over Darling".
There is no hope is there?

Toadinthehole · 01/05/2015 05:58

drunk a pint of IPA

Points off for drinking weak, watery weasel piss.

Good work chaps.

nornironrock · 15/05/2015 10:06

Just joined (hello!).

Manliness today has been helping client design explosions.

Later, I'll be lugging rocks around.

Later than that, I'll be watching Star Wars. Grin

GloopyGhoul · 15/05/2015 10:11

Did school run in t-shirt declaring "BEER" at 9am. Manly. Or lazy?

BelfastBloke · 15/05/2015 11:02

Booked my ticket to the FA Cup Final.

Spannerface · 16/05/2015 08:11

I wrestled a bear at night; pointed at somebody different to me; debated a topic of importance with intense eye contact and stood beneath big excavation machinery.

PrettyInPinkPan · 24/05/2015 11:49

Lifted a load of York Stone flags on the patio. And to confirm manly status, did me back in whilst doing it.

nornironrock · 25/05/2015 10:39

As I am working away from home, yesterday I watched sport all day whilst drinking beer....

PrettyInPinkPan · 25/05/2015 11:21

nornironrock Impressive.

nornironrock · 25/05/2015 11:31

Ha ha, thanks Pretty.

Living the dream.....
