*takes up quill. ' She was tall, lissom and her name was not, I repeat NOT Wendy....when'...... :-D :-D :-D <3 :-D

That's me - the second one! Do it, do it! Change my name though . . . . .

A terrapin, an ancient castle and a gardener....

a wet windy night, a set of dentures, a red lipstick.....

a built in wardrobe, an Italian chef, and a Playboy bunny...

a toupee floating on a lake, a coincidence, a flat tyre.....

Anyone got a suggestion then?

Many thanks to all who have sent me comments, and to all who have sent writing of course :-D And thanks to Ann for coming up with two topics that 'grabbed' me !

Any suggestions for next topic/s gratefully received, it was mentioned to me that we might take it in turns to do so ( and I forgot to pass that on , sorry) so maybe we can do that in future if everyone is happy with it? or make one suggestion each, every week? or just as we think of one ( lol don't wait for me, my mind's a blank :-S)

No problem Rose, two good pieces there. Do we want more scenarios this weekend? :-D

My apologies for the piece I've just sent out in two text sizes.. no matter how I copied or recopied it still came out that way...awful if you have to adjust to read I know :-|

Many thanks to everyone from whom I have received stories; I've not been able to reply yet but I will be putting cyber-pen to paper this weekend.

Thanks for those of you that have sent me your work.
Have sent a PM to you.

I have done one more installment, but want to do another, but have been too busy...funeral, committee meeting,sorting out a cupboard that needed it
but hope to get round to it today...also have been finishing off a family tree for a cousin, who is visiting us on Monday...so no pressure then

Loved Dermots piece, Well done.

Thanks very much to everyone who has sent to me, I will read asap, but have just spent the evening scanning in photo's etc as have had TWO family connections today lol, I hope I don't mix them up ;-)

Well, having read Dermot's work, I think Frank McCourt should move over !!!!!!!!!! WELL DONE

Look forward to them when you can get at them Jan.

Sorry folks instalments 3 and 4 are ready, but my server will not let me open the draft I did last night...!!!!! B.............r !! I had written a poem on If only I could talk as well.....will try again later. Talk Talk are being a real pain.....I can get so far and no further....cannot even open inbox UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Loving meeting you all and many thanks for all the positive vibes

Regards Jan

Oh well done Rose!!!! Shall have to try harder.

BC I can't remember who gave the advice , though it may well have been Maeve Binchy, that writers groups may be a bit stifling of imagination for some, if they are of the sort to stick to rigid exercises.

Ann, I have a poem done! from 'deja vu', it's only short so I might write something else to go with it.

I would be the same BC, it is difficult to join these groups on your own isn't it? Takes an awful lot of courage to justw alk in.

I keep looking at the latest ideas and not getting anywhere.

I'm looking forward to reading...much more so than I am to writing lol, :-S

Look forward to it, Dermot :-)

I was just about to leave to join a local Writing Group when I chickened out...lol...that is the second time I have done that and I am most annoyed at me!
