      Idle Horns

      Sep 10, 2022

      The tongs feel heavy in Bub’s clawed hands. Seven millennia without incident and he freezes during inspection. In front of Bub, is a thief? He’s bound by thick rope to an office chair with poor lumbar support. Bub had truly thought of everything. So

      A PRECIOUS Moment In Time

      Jun 17, 2019

      There’s something about Lambrook Hall that always draws me back and I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve been here. I don’t really care if it’s hundreds, to be honest. I can’t resist it. I’m in the dining room again now. Not the ballroom or the lib

      The naughty GARDENER

      Nov 2, 2022

      I’m going to sell the house,’ announced my sister Deb. ‘I want to downsize.’ Regular readers will know that Deb did very well out of a divorce. The last time I counted, her house had seven bedrooms, most of them unused since she moved in. Then there

      “God Is A Bathtub !”

      Jul 15, 2021

      IT must be the full moon. It was all going along quite comfortably for, ooh, about nine seconds. I’d asked what the album will be like, like it tells me to in the manual. And Björk had replied, “all sorts of things”, just like pop stars are supposed

      Mr D goes TOPLESS

      Apr 26, 2023

      You should probably read these opening paragraphs while hiding behind the sofa because disturbing images might be involved. You’ll risk it anyway? Well, don’t say I didn’t warn you. We have a full-length mirror in our spare bedroom, and the other day

      The Devil You Know

      Jul 10, 2021

      I met the Devil today. He was walking down main street, right by the undertaker in B____, which is a little town near here, and which, for obvious reasons, I’d better not name. I recognized him straight away because he had furry legs with hooves for

      Lev’s Pawn Shop

      Dec 10, 2022

      In days gone by, it might have been said that Lev had had a vision, that he had been struck from his horse by the voice of God and seen the error of his ways. As it was, people said that he had gone a bit nutty in his old age, though it was unanimous

      I’m on the train, traveling alone, with two seats to myself. I have to use the restroom. Without thinking about it carefully, I ask a couple across the aisle if they would please watch my things for me for a moment. Then I take a closer look at them
