Okay...must be cos the show is over..and i'm probably bored...but was
just reading Stevie's "Childline Vs The Grove post (hilarious) and I
thought...how about I start a thread similar to the Word Association
thread except this one is an ever evolving story...I'll post some
totally random sentence..and from then on...anyone can take it where
they want to and lets see where it ends up...probably nowhere..but
hey...I'm bored..so gonna try..hehehe!! Guess some ground rules so it doesn't get out of hand...maybe a max word count of 50-60 words and a minimum of at least one coherent sentence. The other thing is that we can't really have crossover posts like on the Word Association..so if you post simultaneously with someone else after a previous post, the one that comes out second must be deleted by the poster..so it maintains some sort of linear storyline... apart from that..it can go wherever the hell it wants as long as there is at least some tenuous link with the previous sentence. So..after all that yawn enhancing intro...I have to think of an initial post to start it off so.... He woke up at 3am to a brightly lit room and a smiling woman on the TV urging him to try a brand new "miracle anti-wrinkle cream". The ache in his neck made him feel nauseous as he looked down at his beer soaked AC/DC T-shirt, but he still smiled as he thought, "what a night.."!! ------------- Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again. - (Henri Cartier-Bresson) |

There they were at it again. finn reckoned it would take more than a shoehorn to prise them appart. Twenty years on he could remember it as though it was only yesterday. Unable to stand upright he shuffled off bent over but with a pleasent glow..... ------------- A man must have a code |

He could hear the sweet music resonating in his head. He tried to remember the song but couldn't make out the words. He was so confused. He shuffled over to the wall and tried to stand up straight to see better. There were shadows dancing all around him. A strange aroma enveloped him. He could feel soft hands touching his face but he couldn't make out who it was. Yet he remembered that touch. It was so long ago since he felt that..... ------------- Lesley 25th June - 25th July.

...thing in his trousers do that.He could feel the condensation in the air.felt the pile of coats under him.Suddenly,a voice boomed 'ANNNNNNNDDD THATS IT THANK YOU' The deafining roar of 'Na ne na ne na ne na ...ANGUS!' filled the air.There was no need for a shoehorn to prise them apart. She said 'Thanks!' and started swinging her head from side to side. All around him was denim and leather,long skirts,permed hair,embroidery,and everyone made these melted faces while one arm was angled to the left and the other would scratch at their thighs like it itched. Then he knew it.Could it really have been twenty years? Was he...could he be...was he in... ------------- There are three kinds of people in the world,those who are able to count,and those who can't... |

"you know where" He wasn't sure. His eyes couldn't focus with the bright lights on. He could hear familiar voices calling him. Was his name "ANGUS". The crowd were calling him???????? He could smell vodka from the girl near him. Cider from the long haired devil on the other side of him. The wooden floor vibrated......... ------------- Lesley 25th June - 25th July.

...and then all the house lights went on.The girl he needed to be prised away from said 'So that's what you look like'. He looked at his membership card and it didn't say Angus.The photograph on it started talking to him. 'One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small...' it sung.

'...fancy going out to the compound?' she asked He couldn't remember what,who or where the compound was.With a diet in mind he thought it was a compound formula medical thing so agreed.

He swayed from side to side and swung his leg over the bike. She jumped on behind him wrapping her arms tightly around him. Just as he was about to pass out as she was crushing his lungs with her weight, the bike roared. She moved closer to him, leaning forward she whispered in his ear........... ------------- Lesley 25th June - 25th July. Get organising my nights out. Child can stay in the car. Grove 1980-1984 |

and I want an onion ring. If it's closed we can go to Lynch's. The bike started up again. He could hear the sirens wailing. What was happening.

She looked at him and smiled. It was like being back in the old days. Her, wrapped around him, shivering with the cold. Him, only thinking of where to get the next beer. He walked thru the door, she tripped over the step, the bouncer looked at them and said, "don't you think its a bit late for coming in? and what's with yer woman".............. ------------- Lesley 25th June - 25th July.

'Who,her? never saw her before in my life.' He makes a dash for the bar and orders a Black Russian. Two lads are talking at the bar.'Did you see that Eejit doing 91 on the bike coming in here?' 'No' says the other-'some kind of Freebird.Was he a real Biker,Pat?' 'Dunno.Fancy a drink?' Yes...whiskey please. Irish.Mammy told me never to drink scotch.'
Our man sat at the bar,listening to the sounds.'That sounds like Pink Floyd.Man I haven't heard them in ages.' He was thirsty after the Noodles and Rolos he just ate from Raheny,so asked for another drink.when through the Fwinno (!?!) he saw the Blondie one he had left at the door.

Before he can escape,she shouts at him...'Hey-where's my PLO Scarf?'... 'What colour was it?' he asked. 'Blue.Bells on it as well.' In an effort to distract her he shouts...'Hey-see dixie over there?' She looks and then our man dashes out faster than a tri-esthalon.

"Hi Ho....Silver bike yours pal?" He looked quickly towards where it had been parked...and tried to decide whether or not there really was a 6ft5" transvestite with a full beard straddling the saddle... this really had been the strangest day of his life.. As he popped a chip into his mouth and felt it burn painfully he wondered what tommorrow might bring.... ------------- Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again. - (Henri Cartier-Bresson) |

7am. Alarm goes off.Monday morning and our man realises he has to go to work. 'Was all last night a dream?' he asked himself. When he felt the blister on his tongue from the chips it slowly came back to him. A blue PLO scarf was at the end of his bed.It had bells on it. 'Oh no' he thought. 'She's not here,is she???' As he wandered towards the toilet he could hear the shower going.'I've been here before' he said with a strange sense of deja vu. As he slowly pushed open the door he peered inside. 'Aaaagghh!! It's you!'... ------------- There are three kinds of people in the world,those who are able to count,and those who can't... |

She stood naked in the running water...her beard dripping..her muscles glistening and she smiled at him like a wolf eyes it's prey... "You didn't think you'd get rid of me that easy did you Finn?..not after all these years...Oh no... today you are going to meet your daughter...she knows all about you..." And as she turned away and began to rub her wild untamed hair once more..Finn felt his stomach turn butterflies....the only thought in his head...?
