Tuesday is Flash Fiction Foray by Matt The Book Blogger!
Today’s prompt song…
Yesterday Once More – The Carpenters
Feel free to base responses of anything to do with the song, I always enjoy any different takes! 100 words! Make em count!
And my entry…
Looking at all those happy faces in the photos, Edith smiled to herself.
Vera, Rose, Lizzy, Isabel and her.
That was her favourite snap, the five of them on the promenade in Brighton.
A day trip away from the confines of the city. They were so happy, ice creams in hands, holding onto hats that were threatening to be blown away by the sea breeze…
She closed her moistening eyes.
That was 65 years ago.
She was the only one left.
No amount of wishes would bring her friends back, but she couldn’t help wishing it was yesterday once more…
OMG!!!!

~This is too frustrating!
My internet went haywire at home today, now my Ipad, which I use the reader on, won’t connect!
But at least I have my phone!
Then I was not getting email alerts from certain bloggers!
Now, as I was trying to sort out a post for a Flash Fiction challenge, my Microsoft Surface won’t let me type into a new post!
Hence me sat at my PC!
Is anyone else having posting difficulties?

Monday Haiku time! And Ron has given us a tough couple of words this week!
Rein & Quest
Two takes this week…
The Hunter
Now the hunt is on
Excitement can’t be suppressed
It’s within my graspRitu 2016
Sleeping Beauty – A Tanka
Holding the reins tight
I gallop into the woods
On a quest for love
To find the Princess I seek
Asleep for a hundred years.Ritu 2016

It’s Monday again… How did that happen?!
Been a busy weekend for us. What with Pop’s Birthday and things I knew it would be mad, but certain things you can’t anticipate! I forgot, for a start, that we were meant to be going visiting with the in-laws on Saturday, so my beautifully laid plans for this weekend went out the window!
Then Lil Man went for his first Cricket training… Amd he totally smashed it! The coach was amazed at his leftie bowling talent, and requested he be signed up for the team to play this coming Friday! He was invited for a one to one nets training session on the Sunday, so we duly went to the shops on Sunday morning to kit him up. Whites bought and his first box! How funny!
But cricket trousers come with the hem undone, so I would need to hem them before Friday.
The nets went brilliantly… So brilliantly they asked that he be signed up immediately,and play on Monday, as in tonight!!
No pressure!!!
So, trousers hemmed, kit ready for his first match. Just hope that it doesn’t rain, and the match gets cancelled. He is so excited!
It’s also the last week before half term…
I can always tell we are due a holiday as my energy starts to flag, the kids at home and school start getting rattier and rattier. It hasn’t helped that I forgot my Vitamin D tablets recently, and I’ve been flaking out so early in the evenings.
But…
I have a little secret…
I can’t be more specific at the moment. But needless to say, these holidays are going to be a week to remember for a very positive reason!
It may mean I am a little indisposed for few days, challenge entire may be delayed, but they will be done!
I’m so excited!
And I’ll share very soon!!!
Have a wonderful Monday Peeps!
