Honking grew from our neighbours having no doorbell. One day when we went to visit, one of us honked to let them know we were there. It worked and it was fun. They began to return the favour when they visited us and so the honking habit began.
The Honk club was created by Kimberley Newland when she was eight years old. Members of the Honk club look at the world through smiling eyes, celebrate all things potty and like to share a honk with each other, especially before a meal.
If you like this blog then you are a suitable candidate for Honk Club membership . Join us and become a Happy Honker.
(Not hinker or hunker or henker or hanker, it’s honker as in honk, honk.)
Members of the Honk club can contribute to this blog. Leave a note here if you have any whimsical wisdom you’d like to share.
A favourite pastime of Honk Club members is playing tea parties, like this one with the founding members of the Honk Club.
Honk Club members are also fond of Dr Seuss books. They embody pottiness in the most delightful way.
Here’s the rules from the first Honk Club newsletter from 2002.
Here’s the first page of that newsletter. My haven’t times changed. Now it’s a blog and membership is open to the world. Back then, we had a Queen of Honks too. She was the person with the richest, longest honk.
