Something New
I was asked recently to come up with a story suitable for
a specific magazine...

This is what I came up with, see if your can guess what kind
of magazine it was....

(by the way, Yeadon is a real place, from my home town)

The Garden of Yeadon

Neville Raper 2017

So all is fine in my garden, Eden with an Adam, except I’m better dressed.

Yes, all was calm and content in my green, and pleasant land, all fifty foot of it, until just like the Bible predicted,  I met my rib.

It started with music, a cacophony of sixties hits, “Daydream Believer”, “Love me do.” Breaking my monastic musings over the savoy. The ‘patch’ at the side of me had been empty for about three months.

A young couple had taken it over but soon realised that they didn’t have the time to maintain their spot and keep back the murderers of nature. As a consequence, it was now a beautiful crop of weeds.

Their shed had been cleared and padlocked. Now as I looked over I could see the door open wide.

My first worry was, had it been broken into by kids? A few times I’d had to chase off predators who been there to pinch the produce or just have fun kicking the heads off flowers. But, I thought, they wouldn’t bring a radio, would they?

Then she emerged.

Sylvia, her red hair, like Medusa's snakes seemed to have a mind of its own. To me, it looked like she combed it with an egg whisk. Dungarees two sizes too big hung off her porcelain shoulders, rolled up at the knee to reveal boots issued by the artillery.........

International Flip Flop Day

I've got a friend with two left feet, he wears a pair of Flip Flips !

It's SUMMER, so today is the day to kick off those shoes and stick on those flip flops.
People have been wearing flip flops since 4000bc. 
They got their name from......of course, the sound the make on the floor as you walk.

So celebrate......flipflop your way around, but not too long, because they're not
great for your feet !!
