Each month a regular challenge is set to give Alpha Writers a chance to flex their writing muscles and engage in some friendly competition. Read on for details of present and previous challenges, entries and results!

CHALLENGE 10
Alpha Day 10: 29 March 2007

This is the last challenge of this season, so I'd like as full an entry as possible.

So I'd like you to send a short description or anecdote which fits the following prompt.

A funny (peculiar or ha-ha) thing happened on the way to work/dinner/pub/church (anything you do on a regular basis).

Describe in crisp clear terms (up to 300 words) such a happening (real or invented) which is unusual in a routine journey. It may be humorous, it may be sad, it may be just a coincidence. The main aim is to describe what happened in an unambiguous - and unadorned - way.

Send your entries to Zena by Alpha Day 11, April 19th.
