What do you think? Was the punishment sufficient or will he re-offend? People of a certain disposition will understand the importance of this crime. I am so ashamed. My solicitor advised me to plead temporary insanity and for a while I was tempted. A long day and being tired was no excuse. I knew …

Robot
I was trying to concentrate on proof reading my next book today when I was interrupted. At least it provided inspiration for this Drabble. (A short story of 100 words exactly.) Definition of a Robot 'A person who works mechanically without original thought, especially one who responds automatically to the commands of others.' I love being a robot. Ring, ring. Pick up the phone, but say nothing. Silence, …
Missing
I think a lot of people will be able to relate to this one. 😀 Everyone has someone and I had my partner. We went everywhere together and were a perfect match. That is until the lady of the house went away for a few days, and left the family to look after us. At …
UnSantaciding
Poor Old Santa seems to have had a hard time of it lately. Some friends in a writer's group seem determined to make his life difficult, and I didn't help with my Zombie Christmas story. His problems included missing stockings, no Christmas tree, the cupboard under the stairs and using Trip Advisor, hence the odd …
Zombie fig rolls
Chatting with some friends about Advent calendars and Christmas, we got onto the subject of fig rolls and zombies (as you do). It was such a weird combination it tickled my quirky nature and this was the result. It wasn’t fun being one of the undead. Since I’d been killed in a robbery gone wrong …

Mugs on Saturday night
A friend in Canada sent me an e-mail with a series of decorative mugs. I couldn't resist sharing this one with The Bookshop Cafe, one of my online readers/writers groups. Well it is Saturday night in the UK. Cheers!
The Rectum
I know this is an oldie, but it makes a lot of sense, and it is funny. All the organs of the body had a meeting to decide who should be in charge. 'I should be in charge,' said the brain, 'because I run all the body's systems, so without me nothing would happen.' 'I …
How much?
In response to The Daily Post's writing prompt: "Retrospectively Funny." A few years ago we were in a dimly lit cafe in the very early hours of the morning after a night on the razz. My friend peered at the bill but was too squiffy to read it properly, so I went to settle up. …
