ok everybody ,this is how this works

I’ll start a story and anyone can just jump in and add a line or a paragraph or two. Continue where I left off …… The next person then continues as they wish.

Come on guys, its simple, yes a bit childish but hey run with it, it could be fun!

Here goes:

Today I got up and decided to go shopping for a new belt and a replacement for a worn out coat I’ve had for donkeys year. I stepped off the bus, walked through the doors of coatsandbelts R us and immediately………

I remembered that I left my wallet at home, this is most inconvenient as I really really needed to replace worn out coat. I considered going back home to fetch my wallet but I remembered that I gave my keys to my wife, who lost hers the day before. We both left the house at the same time, she was supposed to be back home before me....

 

[Robocop]

And her exact instructions to me (The man of the house) were ‘If you don’t come back with a new coat, you are locked out permanently’

I dug deep into my pockets and counted out £3-59 in change, wondering up and down the high street I spotted a charity shop so decided to take a look inside………

 

[temi]

At the charity shop, I saw a brilliant coat on the coat hanger, the price tag was £3.99.

 

[Robocop]

I could parter i guess but I could hear my wifes words ringing in my ears, if she knew she would say

'brilliant coat, £3.99, charity shop YOUR DEAD'

I decided to go next door to Poshcoats R Us. Standing at the counter was a young blind girl, mmmmmmmm should I pinch a coat and run, try on one and leave my old coat on the hunger and leave wearing the new one? My mind was buzzing, wife-coat - wife-coat Holly crap I thought to myself then.........

 

[temi]

Then I remembered my young days, how adept I was at pinching things from shops. Guilt set in, targeting a blind girl is not fair.
Then it occurs to me that Trevor Phillips, the equal opportunities Czar will call it discrimination, "you should treat disabled people exactly as you would and able person..."

 

[Robocop]

So i grabbed a nice sheepskin and turned to run out of the shop as though my arse was on fire...

 

[temi]

The blind girl behind the counter was not just any blind girl, she is an award winning martial arts expert, just as I was about to run our of the store, I felt ..

 

[Robocop]

a blinding pain in the back of my head as a Chinese dragon nunchaku knocked me to the floor.

I looked up through dazed eyes and saw the familiar face of .......

 

[temi]

My wife, she got to me before the blind store attendant could, she was the one that administered the Chinese dragon nunchaku....

"Okay Honey, you got me! Please pay the lady and the next week when we'll be playing this game you get 1 bonus hour ahead." Then I quickly turned to the blind girl, and said politely (as much as I could, as my head still remembered the Dragon nunchaku): "Apologies Milady, in this borring town you need to do something not to go mad or drop dead, you know what I mean..." Not sure if I knew what I meant. Anyway I went towards the door as fast as I could...

 

[Robocop]

Only to be once again stopped in my tracks, this time by my wife, she tripped me up and then started to claim to the blind lady that she was in fact a passing policewoman and that she would take me off and make sure I was punished!

The blind lady fell for it, we left with the coat. We were both theives now.

Entering a coffee shop next door, we sat down, ordered and my wife opened her handbag and showed me to my horror a ........

 

[Piotrek]

...police badge, handcuffs and a gun. My mouth went half open, my eyes went still, my heart went crazy, my mind went away...
