1: When invited for a meal at a friend's house, as a BPI, you have THE perfect excuse to get out of washing the dishes........
2 ...AND drying them.
3; Swimming in perfect circles is dead easy...should you want to that is...! (Well, it works for me and keeps the kids in the local pool amused...)
4; This one is for ladies and cross-dressers only; you get to try out and/or invent new and very interesting yoga positions while trying to do up your bra, put tights on etc. etc.
5; AT LAST! NO MORE MAKING A FOOL OF YOURSELF doing the 'Birdie Song', 'Agadoo', and for those old enough to remember it, 'The Okey Cokey'... (Thanks Marc! I am forever in your debt!) However, Riverdance is an entirely different prospect..
6 ;( My personal favourite this one...) As a BPI'er, you have the PERFECT chat-up line at your disposal; when you find yourself faced with a buffet table at a party, BBQ, or wedding reception, or any sort of social gathering, you can approach the best looking man (or lady..!) and say something like ..'excuse me, you look like a kind person, I wonder if you can help me with this...I have lost the use of one arm and sometimes these things (indicate the table at this point) have nowhere to put a plate down...' anyway, you get the picture!! I won't go into all the occasions where this can be useful; I'll leave it up to your imagination...but, believe me, this WORKS! Keep an eye open for girlfriend/boyfriend of your target/victim, and all should go smoothly and hey presto! you've found a new friend (or whatever..) and had a good lunch...
7; As a Grandma with a BPI, I have never been expected to change a nappy (diaper) for which I am eternally grateful; I was never very good with my own kids...Daddy did it most of the time; I'm not very good with smells! I get to spoon feed them instead...MUCH more fun!
Well, that's all I've thought of so far -
Meanwhile, I'll leave you with a few thoughts that made me laugh;
BPI Mexican waves..
BPI Hula hoops..
