At the stable, lost in thought, Jim hadn’t noticed his Uncle until he heard, ‘Take it from me, them that have lived longest, see the most. I should know, I’ve glasses older than thee so I'll soon set you straight about that woman.’
Trapped yet strangely comforted, Jim said ‘Coffee?’

The camera clicked. Naughty for You went off-line for Ken’s lunch-break. Once, he’d been an escort when package meant the clothes you wore, When it didn’t, he became a tickler before it went hardcore. Lunch over, Ken checked the kitchen was untidy, clicked on, and waited to be told off.

The Sunday Scribbling prompt this week is to write an acceptance speech. This is my take on the truth behind the gush.
I’d like to thank…and last, but not least, I must praise my mother who sadly can’t be with us tonight.
As the choir sings Soul of My Saviour, I am handed a blurred photo that shows, through a gap in the curtains, a face, dappled by stained-glass colours, and a hand, cupping smarties like drugs. With a shock. I realised it is Father Thomas, clearly singing from the wrong hymnsheet.

Describing your Saturday life on Show My Face at the moment of writing in a phrase using just six words.
Up at dawn because of dog**
** Rosie sleeps in the bedroom (long story) and in summer wakes me up at daybreak for reassurance that she isn’t alone. Funnily, never my wife who can sleep through an earthquake sleeps soundly. I, if I have had at least 5 hours sleep, is then very awake. For I’m that annoying guy from the hotel or camp who is chatty, smiley, full of get and go while you struggle to sip coffee and the world is in slow motion cotton wool for at least three more hours. So walk the dog says you (or tackle that garden you moaned about last week – please no need to turn abusive). I would walk her but then she goes back to sleep and gives me the ‘Why are you disturbing me look’, if I even venture to say walkies. So at 5.30am it’s catch up on the news, surf the net, do some writing and drink tea until someone surfaces. Given it’s nearly 9.am the solitude may end soon, honest. But 6WS on Show My Face isn’t even up yet. Sigh, it’s another cup of tea then.
