Written for Thursday Inspiration #157 I know my job, losing Graham hasn’t change that. Listening to the constant chatter on the streets, something links his death, to my story. It is like Chinese whispers – one person saying something, which is told to another person, who was found dead in an alley. Scott, so young,Continue reading “I Know My Job”

Sisters
Clara was always the person to go to when Davina had a problem. They were always close, like the age difference didn’t matter. As they got older, only a phone call away. Hours talking about their family, someone to talk to, who understood. Young again, as if they were children reading Katie together. Learning herContinue reading “Sisters”

My take on questions from Fibbing Friday 1. According to the song, what colour is love? The colour of love is blue, like the tranquil sea, or the sky on a sunny day. 2. Who sang about a Green Door?

”Sushi, that’s raw fish, isn’t it?” Alan said, poking the food with his chopsticks. Elizabeth smiled, taking her dad to the Japanese restaurant seemed a good idea a month ago. A chance to try new things, but one look in his direction told her all she needed to know. ”Look try one, and I’ll tryContinue reading “A New Experience”
A Comfy Night In
A warm drink, a packet of chocolate biscuits, and watching re-runs of Miss Marple was Barbara’s idea of heaven. She didn’t want nights out partying, with the local riff-raff. Alcohol didn’t bother her, neither did the dancing. Friends were forever trying to get her to meet someone, but she had no need of love. TheContinue reading “A Comfy Night In”
