There I was minding my own business
pondering what I should write in my diary, should it be yet another quiet day
at school watching the seagulls eating chips again and or discovering that the
maths teachers large abacus when placed on the floor beads down makes a brilliant
luge and that the corridors of the science block are almost an exact replica of the fabled Cresta Run. There is nothing
more exciting than passing the physics teacher at 70mph lying on a luge (sorry
abacus).
As I was saying I was
pondering all this and listening to the wireless and eating a rather yummy stir
fry.
So as I listened to the news
on the wireless and the continuing death of the people of Syria , Mr
Napoleon Beelzebub is not a happy man (Devil) and I was thinking will I discuss
politics or the now rather large mushrooms in the box containing the Strange
Alien Mushroom Creatures From Venus. Or maybe the rather good bonfire I had
after school where I was allowed to burn all sorts of old unneeded spy stuff
and a large pile of conifer from the once virgin unexplored forests of just
outside our house.
Then in an instant
everything suddenly changed by a story on the news about a horse. Now as you
know I am not bitter and twisted that it was a horse that convinced the very
nice Steven Spielberg to abandon my manuscript in preference for one full of war
and horses. Leaving me abandoned in cyberspace with a few friends and a mad
Ghost Writer for ever to write the longest story (ever) in the world. But
really no longer had I thought to myself well it will be cat food now anyway,
so no sequel for that horse. When dam it another one turns up. This time it
appears that Mel Brooks (sorry Rebekah) Woman from the News of the World was given one by the
police to look after, or as they said on the news adopted. ADOPTED WHAT???? Really
I don’t really mind horses that much but people are going to have to watch they
don’t take over the world because if both the right hand man of Steven Spielberg
and Rupert Murdoch are not men but horses all I can say is something is going
on.
Imagine the confusion of
the Strange Alien Mushroom Creatures From Venus when they say take me to your leader and everyone
points at a horse. What is more worrying it that these things come in threes so
I am keeping a look out for the third one. The dog says it is all turning into
a pantomime and has fallen about in hysterics …….. and mum has added IDIOT
Oooooo yes ............ one other thing
we had huge claw marks in the concrete outside the cat flap this morning which
might explain why the cats are not happy going out at night. Not sure what it
is but it is not a horse PHEW……
I would thank Mr ESB for his contribution in the writing of this entry, without him there would be no abacus

I can't believe anyone still uses an abacus (apart from for luging of course).
ReplyDeleteThe abacus is still common in some parts of the world and the have even developed the Abacus Scientific so it
DeleteUm, I am confused, what did I contribute? I am suddenly under the weather and semi-delicious. Oh, I'm sorry, semi-delirious. I think its the flu or close proxy.
ReplyDeleteits all to do with Lateral thinking and your comment about Norm and Al......
