The Chat Room / Naughty Parrot

A wee story that's sad and a bit amusing, but nothing to do with the worlds troubles of today. I wonder where it escaped from and hopefully it will get a forever home, if somebody takes it in.

The Chat Room / Lessons
Last post by Raven - Today at 11:29:19 AM
Just back from a stroll along The Front, stopped to watch the usual Saturday Morning Surfing lessons for the youngsters. It can be fun watching them they've no fear at all, the look of determined concentration on this wee lads face says he's going to be one who makes it.  :smiley: It's good of the local surfers to give up their time to teach the young ones every week.

Living alone is awful. Miss the odd chat.....
"Would you like a cup of tea?"  "Shall we go out for a stroll?"
ALL gone :-(

I have been a widow for 30years.. Sam died aged 52..
I've been around the block a few times though.... 

He left me a dog.. cat.. mortgage free property and a pension..

I have discussed with my mate what I would say to Sam if he walked into the room..
 I really don't know.. So much water under the bridge.. He would be like a stranger..

I see the pictures and avoid the story. I simply don't care. So much far more important going on in the world. Like who was this year's Chipping Sodbury Carnival Queen, what's on offer at the Co-Op, will it rain tomorrow - pretty much anything and everything is more important.

Phil was desperate to wash it all off
One sniff, and it made him cough
He jumped in the shower
Till he smelled like a fresh flower
Or some one say like a poof

Brian's phone rang and he took the call
Well howdy there Brian he heard someone drawl

Andrew should have been an estate agent.. Wasted talent...

Greedy, greedy... Will spend the rest of his life crouching down in the back of motors..
Hiding behind locked gates..  drinking fine wines and having gourmet foods prepared for him..
No' ReadyMeal for one' for this indulged brat..
And , all the time, being protected...
Never being accepted by the public as a royal again..

It would appear that all Andrew's family are greedy and on the make..
