Tales of humour, whimsy and courgettes
Oops! I missed last weeks #Colour_Collective. Posted it to Twatter and nowhere else. Flight, something we’ve all dreamed of doing right? We’ve all probably had a fear of falling from said flight too.

“I always thought our second time together was better,” said Jessie. “Though that phone call we got afterwards was a funny one.”
“The woman who phoned me up screaming about what a dirty girl you were,” laughed Saturn. “How you’d split up her relationship by tempting her partner into bed…”
“I remember,” laughed Jessie. “I said ‘Hey you listen here! If the problem you have with your partner is so bad, you should tell them that!'”
“Yeah,” groaned Saturn. “Then you handed the phone to me…”

“Ah, this place,” said Saturn.
“Yeah I thought you’d recognise it,” said Jessie.
“Our first night when we…” trailed off Saturn.
“Yeah,” grinned Jessie.
“Good call for a date,” said Saturn. “I was only in here the other day.”
“Same,” said Jessie. “I met Fuen and Yuffie here.”
“Odd there’s nobody here,” observed Saturn.
“It’s like the parrot themed club we visited that had no parrots in,” remarked Jessie.
“Yes,” recalled Saturn. “Pollygone.”

“Do you fancy knocking off early, Reala?” asked Yuffie.
“Nothing’s going on here,” she replied.
“We’re gonna go watch the pigeon races, have a little flutter,” said Fuen.
“Ah, good,” said Reala, putting on her coat. “My aunt used to race pigeons.”
“Really?” asked Yuffie.
“Yeah,” said Reala. “I don’t know why. She never beat them.”

“New hat?” asked Winston.
“Yeah,” said Charlie, twiddling his new trilby to the room. “Got it off an eBay house clearance for £1.20! It’s got a name tag for a Michael in it, but otherwise, it’s mint.”
“Reminds me of your old one,” said Winston.
“Yeah, that’s why I got it. Nostalgia grabbed me!” said Charlie. “Can I get you a drink?”
“Any chance I could have a Green Vesper?” asked Winston.
“Yeah sure,” said Charlie. Charlie had no idea how to make cocktails or mix drinks.
Michael did though.

“Here,” said Fuen. “Let me see that.”
Yuffie handed over her laptop. Fuen began tinkering.
“What’s the problem?” asked Reala.
“My laptop won’t take my password,” sighed Yuffie.
“What’s your password?” asked Fuen.
“Beefstew,” replied Yuffie.
“It’s probably not stroganoff,” pointed out Reala.

Yuffie walked in trailing white paint behind her.
“Yuffie!” gasped Reala, putting newspaper down on the floor around her.
“Oh sorry,” said Yuffie. “I thought I’d give fingerpainting a go this morning.”
“How did that go?” grumbled Reala, reaching for the mop.
“Awful,” sighed Yuffie. “Took me eight hours to do the skirting boards.”

“How’s your afternoon going?” asked Fuen.
“Not bad,” said Reala. “I think I have invented a new flavour of crisps.”
“Oh really?” asked Fuen.
“Yep,” replied Reala, holding out some hot dog flavoured crisps. “Combining British crisps with an American flavour.”
“Nice,” said Fuen. “If they’re popular you’re gonna make a packet.”

Capricorn (ep. 82)
He looked at the cage. He hated that rabbit. It’s white fur and ruby-red eyes. They burned in the dark. Most children his age liked Easter. He hated it. He knew what happened to the neighbour’s cat last year. He wondered if his parents knew. Probably not, they were too busy out drinking at that bar. He heard the latch coming loose on the hutch. He watched the rabbit as it left the room on tonight’s hunt. Easter bunnies should be feared.

For this weeks #Colour_Collective. Wasps… Nope… Nothing to say or see here. Arse dagger wielding little feckers.
