He sat, buttocks nestled gently in the loving and gentle caress of his favourite armchair, secure in the knowledge that his sanity teetered on a knife-edge. He knew without a shadow of doubt that it could be blown off the edge by the lightest of summer breezes, set to flutter aimlessly and without a point of reference through the atmosphere of what was left of his tattered intellect. Luckily it was winter and the howling gales were upon him. He's used to that shit and knows how to hang on...and tea parties make everything okay, particularly if you're drinking whisky. Hurrah for single malt!
I am a confirmed and certifiable nutbar with a penchant for skulls, bones, blood, guts, fire and anything slightly peculiar and mostly bizarre. I also...
I must say - I do appreciate your lovely china - and everybody needs a unicorn friend. I was a little concerned about the narrative - until contents of those lovely cups was revealed - all made perfect sense then!! Oh - and the photo is a doozy!!
@robz That was my grandmothers china...we have several more lying about the place... @shannejw Thank you very much :) @rustymonkey Madness I tell you!!! @koalagardens Don't we all... @yorkshirekiwi He's a truculent little bastard. @nicolecampbell Thank you very much, very much appreciated.
@byrdlip It's a difficult task but it's worth it... @jacqbb He never did...a pale imitation at best ;) @blueberry1222 I'd only use it to stab people... ;) @30pics4jackiesdiamond A metal straw actually, far better for whisky ;) @jetr Thank you very much :) @kjarn I'm quite happy with this one as well...and it took a suspiciously short amount of time... @kiwinanna I think he's had enough already...
@gardencat He'll need a lot more by the time I'm done with him... @gardenfolk Limited numbers I'm sorry ;) @joysabin That would be rude...so yes :)) @fbailey It's actually blood but it's so small that it's hard to tell...tears are just as good ;)
I don't know how this character can eat or drink anything! I suppose he could tip it down his eye holes! You should write a book and scare more people!
You're getting quite poetic in your prose. I was a bit worried when I saw the tea-cup, grandma's or not, but if the contents were single malt that's all good. After all, it's all in best spirits.
A good single malt taste perfect out of any thing but plastic, so at least your not letting the side down old chap, I agree with Maggiemae write a book it would give Steven king and E A Poe a run for their money.
@haskar Not necessarily... ;) @4rky You're probably quite right but I also think we're both prepared to find out. @hobgoblin Yes, but if I write I'm worried that people may well read it. @golftragic Nothing but the best for nothing but the best ;)
