The
Slightly eccentric A to Z blogging adventure of unknown and rather unpopular
Modern fairy tales
2013
W The wise witch of Woolworth’s
The
wicked Witch of the West had wooed the young eccentric Writer
into her world with words of wealth and wisdom
and a large life size waxwork of
himself in the Wondrous museum of wonders
What day of the week is it thought the writer, is it Wednesday, but it was
not it was Friday, still it did
mean the Weekend was about to start and he would have time to work out fairytales for Y and Z. Then
he noticed a wigwam and a wicker chair and a wrestling Whale covered in Wold painting a Wheelbarrow White, What
a stroke of luck said the Writer,
but the Wicked Witch of the west shouted “WHAT?”
Yes
it was the Wise Witch of Woolworths conjuring up W words out of the Wind which was whistling in the castle wings as the weather vane whirled like
a wheel. Stop it shouted the Wicked Witch of the West, as a weasel wearing wellington boots walked by; Stop it Stop it Stop it” whined the Wicked
Witch of the West…..
And
as the Wicked Witch of the West and the Wise witch of Woolworths
waved their arms and Writhed
about in a whirlwind of spells,
the young eccentric writer wondered off
into the sunset and lived happily ever after. . . . . . . . . . .Well for a while anyway.

Great post, the witch of woolworths closed all our branches in the UK A FEW YEARS AGO.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
I spent many a happy hour in Woolies.
DeleteAhh only a few days to go. I'll miss you Whacky Whimsical fairy tales :)
ReplyDeleteAh well Miss Laura I was thinking of just carrying on and going all the way back to A in a slightly mad bit of showmanship. But am I that mad. . . . . ?
DeleteThat was so cool how you were able to sneak Wednesday into a Friday post. I am proud of you.
ReplyDeleteYou are just like a regular ole J.K. Wrowlings - hahahaha, I found you another W word. Maybe someday you too can get a OBE, then I thought, isn't Obe the name of the Japanese prime minister? And I was right, that isn't his name, its Abe. I think it would be cool if Abe quit being prime minister to focus on the oboe and then became so good at it that the British govt gave him an order to come to the UK to get his OBE. Then he would be Abe of The Oboe with an OBE right at his elbow. Oops, I meant the oboe was near his elbow, not the OBE.
DeleteThat is a very cool reply Mr ESB, not many folk get responses like that on this A to Z thing.
DeleteI will think of myself as a regular ole J.K. Wrowlings with pride.
Whismical Wonderment Without Want.
ReplyDeleteYou beat everyone else hands down Rob, (or even with hands up or behind your back!)
Bravo sir. I salute you.
You are very kind, I am disappointed by the lack of interaction between bloggers this year. But I care not, as long as us RATs do our bit all is well.
DeleteGood luck with those horses, I think as long as you always pick the one at the front you cant go wrong. (Bravo Sir, 20 to 1 on the head).
Why is it that my posts are getting more rubbish by the day and yet, your fairytales are still fantastic to read? I've said it once and I'll say it again, you really have outdone yourself this year Rob Z. :)
ReplyDeleteLast year I did it all sort of on the spur of the moment on the day and that is rather stressful. This year I did pre-write almost all of it and just tweaked what needed tweaking. It was all the drawings that were done the day before as a bit of an extra. I still have pics to do for Y and Z yet but luckily I have tomorrow to do them.
DeleteAnyway I an off to try my hand of building a small wall now. A new skill for me so it might fall over, like me.
Wonderful. I have tried your last years tactic. I am conjuring each days post, that day. I'm ready to be done.
ReplyDeleteThat is Hard work Mr Flip. But I am enjoying your blog
