Spidey’s Serene Sunday – Part 216

“A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are.”
– Unknown

Another apt one Spidey!

I’m so excited! This weekend I have had a chance to spend time with my bff for the first time on a looooong while!

She is here with me, with her gorgeous two year old too and we have spend the weekend having a great catch up and giggles.

I love having this time with her, as we don’t get it often because we life quite far from each other.

Ours is a friendship that has blossomed over 25 years, since our first day at university, and there is not much that girl doesn’t know about me. She has been there for me through all sorts of ups and downs, and seen me in plenty of silly situations. Despite that, she’s my sister from another mister, and we love each other dearly.

So… tell me, do you have that someone who is so special to you, but not a partner, or family?

#SoCS April 6/19

Linda’s #SoCS prompt this week:

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “fab.” Use it as a word or find a word beginning with “fab.” As always, use any way you’d like. Have fun!

The first thing that came to mind when I saw the prompt was icecream!

I don’t know if you have these anywhere other than the UK but here we have ice lollies called Fab!

They are a mix of strawberry and vanilla ice, dipped in chocolate and sprinkles!

Have you had one?

I must admit I am not a big fan, but the kids love them!

Fab lollies are older than me… introduced by Lyons in 1967, to coincide with the popularity of Thunderbirds, alongside another lolly called Zoom which was more rocket shaped for the boys… Apparently girls would have prefered the ‘feminine’ shape of a Fab, rather than a Zoom lolly…

Personally, the ice lolly is more my thing!

April 4: Flash Fiction Challenge – Fire

Charli at the Carrot Ranch, with her prompt for this week:

April 4, 2019, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less) write a story about fire. It can be a flame that burns or a light that inspires. Follow the flames and go where the prompt leads!


Out Of The Frying Pan, Into The Fire


I sat at the bar, nursing my whiskey. Needed to be sensible. I couldn’t afford to be reckless with my drink again.
I hadn’t meant to leave the barbeque unattended, but after a few drinks with my guests, I forgot it, and turned to see the flames licking the sky.
Gina wasn’t planning on letting me back in the house. I had to keep my cool, give her a few hours, then I’d go back, and she’d forgive me.
But would she?
I threw the fiery liquid down my throat in a single gulp.
“Bartender, another one please.”
 

Threshold #writephoto

Sue’s #WritePhoto prompt:


The start of every day is a new threshold.

A new beginning.

You never quite know what life will throw at you next.

Just be calm in the knowledge that, unless it’s your last, the next day will come.

Each day has its ups and downs, sometimes the downs take a while to turn back upwards… but they do.

Just remember, you start a new chapter every day.
