Word Prompt – Repugnant

The aroma from the alley way is repugnant to most people, but I’m used to its sweet, sickly smell. I have worked as a detective for more years than my breakfasts going cold. I always grab something on the go anyways. A doughnut normally. ‘So what have we got here?’ I ask my colleague. ‘Male,Continue reading “Word Prompt – Repugnant”

Thanks to Fibbing Friday

Posted a day after today, but my Flashback Friday post https://fivedotoh.com/2022/10/14/fandangos-flashback-friday-october-14th/ Exactly what did Columbus do in 1492?
