The Blue Danube ...with Walnuts. (2007)

Our next door neighbour gave us a huge bowl of walnuts from her (apparently very productive) walnut tree. And did we have any idea what to do with them all? Not really. At least, not until I had the bright idea of smashing them with a hammer in time to music. I chose a suitably non-violent piece (The Blue Danube Waltz by Johann Strauss Jr.) with which to commit violence against the walnuts. I started with 200 walnuts on the table, and by the time the music finished, I'd destroyed 101 of them B]

was your mum not livid you were hammering on her table?

@Punkndisordly no, she didn't know what i was doing; she was on holiday in Australia B]

and i did try to hit the walnuts not the woodwork - at least most of the time!

Well.... that was rather thinking outside the box... Eheh! Rather interesting... you've made quite a mess...

[thecolclough]

yeah, it was messy... my sister claimed she was still finding bits of walnut on the other side of the room a week later... 8p

Could we be looking at Random Violence Against Nuts?

Great fun!

Interesting idea; did the table survive unscathed? Definately original. :)
