If you check the Directors cuts, it was going to be a Chinese meal, but a reduced budget meant I couldn't have that and a taxi home.

Re: 100-word short story competition

I've just reads the winning entry from last year's competition on their website - excellent. It takes the form of a widow's letter to her dear departed husband. Have a gander at it. www.lancashireauthorsassociation ; click onto the Competition buttons and scroll down.

That link didn't work for me Bob.
I did consider entering, but when I saw that Rob(Restless) was going to enter....I knew I wouldn't stand a chance.

There's only one thing wrong with that Cashy....I struggle to say things briefly......that's way I don't do twitter(well, apart from thinking it, a boring and monumental waste of time).
I did start a story....and I may just have another go at it.
