Top 10 Things to Balance on Your Gran’s Head

It’s a Saturday morning which means no school, but you have a dilemma: You are bored and all of your friends are busy. How about tormenting your Grandma? (in a fun way) She’s old so obviously has nothing to do. How about finding objects around the house to place on her head? That’s right, go and unplug the microwave and find that Dyson hoover, balance it on her head and then take a picture for proof…

That granny is balancing that laptop like a boss. When grandma comes round ain’t no one allowed to surf the internet as the laptop always ends up on her head. Can you imagine if the household had a PC and not a laptop?

Oh dear, looks like someone has fallen to sleep. How can you fall asleep when you’re having so much fun balancing things on your own head, Gran? I guess all that bingo throughout the day has got to take its toll on you at some point.
