    I thought the three-letter story thread had too much limitations ;) ...so how about for this one there are no limitations - write how much or how little you want and we'll see how off course the story goes...
    So I'll start it, and just add as you go along....this is from one of my English essays, if you're wondering!

    It was a cold dark night. A gentle drizzle fell, pattering quietly on windows, accompanied by a strong wind that rattled the windowpanes, further abusing them and insulting the gentle drizzle, comparing its strength to the pitiful precipitation.
    Inside a well-built house, blissfully unaware of the struggles of the elements....

    :D

    Who was in possession of a very large vegetable garden. His carrots were huge and brightly orange, with immense leafy green tops. Oh how she envied him his luscious carrots.
    She was intent upon finding his secret to success at carrot growing. So early one blue-skied morning off she went to find out.

    Dr Jameson of the coveted carrots resided. As she exited her vehicle she caught her stocking on the corner of the door causing a long ladder. "Darn!" she said, "First time I'm wearing them !" She saw, upon examination, there was no hope for the hosiery as they were sadly ruined. So, with a sigh, she marched to the door of Dr. Jameson and rang the bell.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,835 ✭✭✭dennyire


    Dr. Jameson saw the long ladder and climbed up it, somehow arriving in a cold damp room.

    The door slammed shut behind him, and he could see no way out.
    Feeling around, he came upon an apple and cut it in half.
    As two halves make a whole , he was able to climb out through it.
    Looking down he saw the ladder had gone, but as the rain was now coming down in sheets, he tied the sheets together and climbed down them

    Running smack dab into the woman from down the road who'd been eyeing his enormous carrots.
    She at once siezed the opportunity to badger him as to his technique in growing the carrots.
    Dr Jameson tried to explain that the size of the carrots was quite by accident, but she wouldn't believe him. I am afraid Dr. J lost his patience at that point and knocked her over the head with his umbrella.
