Allan could see in the distance a row of white rocks projecting from the sea, with a lighthouse at its end...………..The Needles!

What the...…………….thought Allan. I'm at the Isle of Wight. Pretty as it is, I am a little off course. But then again the only prison here is Parkhurst.

Still I suppose I could tour the villages, sit on a packed beach or even take in the Model Village...…………...

Wow! thought Allan as visions of various prisons flashed through his brain, I must have really upset one of the occupants of my mind, possibly a female one, knowing how the sisterhood works.

Well if it was to be a prison let it be Fremantle, at least it would be an own gaol

Or is that Chateau D’if coming closer....

OOOH.

Alcatraz or the S(c)illy Islands.....

Allan was used to dealing with stubborn things, after all he has been married for almost forty nine years

Of course were we surprised! nope

Unfortunately, Allan is allergic to feathers and Dumbo was still at the holding a feather in his truck stage......so as Allan sneezed he told Dumbo to drop the feather into the sea....Dumbo being stubborn refused....

And there, in the distance, flapping his ears furiously, was DUMBO

to the healthy trail mix OH had given him for a snack....pop...pop...pop...pop.....AHHHHHHH what will break his rapid descent.....

... the cooing seemed quite calming, until Allan realised the pigeons were clawing at the balloon, trying to get ....

Allan had been floating for quite some time when it dawned on him......what was life without OH and her copious bag or at a push without the young lady with the lovely bunch of coconuts???....neither of which were floating with him.....what to do....

Outdoor he fil a ballon with all the methane from the jersey cows and escape...

:-D

Unfortunately, the girl with the lovely bunch of coconuts was otherwise detained....but a Milkmaid wandered into his view.....coconut milk cow milk close enough??

Maybe Allan was really on the island of Jersey...

Well, thought Allan, if OH wants an all-action hero who's sole aim in life was to deliver a box of chocolates, so be it.

He fondly remembered the girl with the lovely bunch of coconuts.

Who knows, there could even be a bounty in getting to know her better

find someone else more suitable to be her traveling companion.
Allan meanwhile had a sudden urge for sweets.....

At the moment both their desires came true.....with the arrival of the Milk Tray man.......

....for the pocket globe she carried. She wanted to find out where on earth Oompa Loompa land was and whether she would be able to find Alan there. or.....

But we shouldn't belittle the whole situation as OH seems to have been left behind in all this current adventure.....now she could be found checking out her copious grab bag of goodies.....

That hard exterior hid a soft centre

It was a bitter sweet revelation for sure....

Allan had finally come out of the closet, wiping the chocolate from his mouth.

It was a bitter sweet revelation for sure....
