:-D :-D

A magnificent spread...every sandwich known to man; dainty pastries to die for....and Allan couldn't believe his eyes.....coconuts.....ignoring the obvious issues here Allan realized just how hungry he really was and made a move on the sandwiches but was suddenly stopped from his forward motion....Carson had grabbed him by the scruff of his collar. With eyes looking to heaven and through gritted teeth; poor Carson couldn't get over the nouveau rich no matter how hard he tried; Carson said "Perhaps Lord Dunabunk would like to sit here by the fire?" as he dropped him into the leather chair....this was just fine...except....Allan started to warm up....and after all this travelling his clothes were leaving something to be desired......Carsons nose started to twitch......

And Allan was turned into a frog.

Allan had forgotten that Carson's first name was Samantha.

OH daintily picked Allan and popped him into her pocket.

The cucumber sandwiches were a delight, and Lady Mary had asked her for a stroll around the garden.

As OH and Mary walked down to the ornamental fountain, Allan could smell the water, and hopped straight out of OH's pocket.

Hopping towards the water, Allan was interrupted by......

LOL seriously RR because I mentioned coconuts!!....didn't even mention the nice young lady.

.....a toad whizzing by in his sports car....the car horn blasted out as Allan jumped out fo the way and straight into......

What!

Allan plopped into the fountain, and came with a Lily on his head. Lily the froglet looked dumfounded and hopped off.

Allan looked after the departing car. Toad was waving and chuckling madly, along with Ratty and Mole. They exited in a cloud of exhaust.

OH deftly scooped Allan up, placed him on the side of the fountain, and gave him a smacker on the top of his head. Allan instantly became human again. And covered his embarrassment with a bunch of reeds.

Some were of the musical variety, so soon there rose a tuneful ? melody.

Caroline Report 16 Jun 2019 20:58

:-D :-D


and of course that tune was "We all stand together".

Carson by now beside himself, red of face and collar far too tight for his blood pressure...lucky enough just at that moment as it seemed Carson manners were about to fail.......

He realised that he was several coconuts short of a Shy

But how to resolve this dilemma?? It's not like coconuts just grown on trees...the answer was almost in the palm of his hands when.....

In walked Aunt Sally.

It was time for Allan to put his thinking head on.

Caroline Report 17 Jun 2019 12:16

Except where was it and where was his OH and her copious bag when you needed her?......oh of course...Allan went in search of the Bearded Lady stall......

Caroline Report 17 Jun 2019 17:01

Oh look the "offensive" comment at the top of the page that was RR is back....common sense prevails :-D

Allan wandered through the fairground looking at the stalls.

Bearded Lady, Rubber Man, Lobster Man, Siamese Twins, they were all sitting outside the tent. A barker was calling to the crowd to come and see.

Allan pulled back the tent flap and peered into the gloom, he was very surprised to see......

Coconuts!

But not just coconuts but also....

Allan's OH, with her copious bag, stuffing them in.

'This will keep us going should we end up in some outlandish place again, see, it is a food and drink'

Allan just stood and nodded, as he knew he would be the one to carry said bag.

They stole out of the back of the tent, and headed South.....

Not having a compass to hand, they followed a flock of low-flying geese.

Allan had correctly surmised that winter was fast approaching.

Being one with nature he had cunningly read the signs that this dread season was fast approaching, such as the snow on the ground and the icicles on his OH's nose.

Indeed in the snow were large footprints.

'Ah' thought Allan 'if there are footprints someone has been here before, and they must lead somewhere!'


They trudged ever onwards, getting colder and colder. At last they saw the figure in front of them making the footprints. It was tall, with a long fur coat......

Yes, it was Bud Flanagan singing a poignant rendition of ‘Underneath the Arches’

This did not go down with Allan’s wife whose arches had fallen years ago.

'I don't envy the rich, with their automobiles......' warbled Bud.

'I blooming well do' thought Allan!

The snow subsided, and Allan realised they were walking through rubble. Everywhere was empty buildings.

Suddenly a siren began to wail...………….

"Oh no" thought Allan "Not another timewarp" as he jumped to the left then step to the right....

How did he end up in all this rubble......
