Drinnng….drinnng….drinnng
Driiing…
Er, hello…look, I’m not answering the phone if you’re trying to sell me something, I’m not interested…go away. If I want to buy anything from you, I’ll contact you. If you are the police, I’m not here. I don’t live here any…
It’s Bob.
Bob?
Bob.
Bob Bob?
Bob Bob Bob!
That’s what I said.
Blimey!
NO! BOB! B .. O …
I know how to spell Bob. I just didn’t expect it to be you. You haven’t been in contact for , well, years I think.
I’ve been busy.
YOU’ve been busy? I’m the one that’s been busy, I’ve been writing a book.
I Know! That’s why I’ve been busy, there’s boxes and boxes of the stuff blocking up the archives.
How is Ms Penny?
Ms Peggy?
Either of them.
They are the one and the same, but I haven’t seen her for months, she took some of the boxes down into the caves a while back and hasn’t returned.
Are you worried.
Not at all. Are you?
No.
You should be.
Why?
You posted the same post twice.
I did?
Yep.
No one has said anything.
I have.
Yes but the readers.
There are none.
None?
Not that I’ve noticed. Or maybe they just haven’t noticed the double blog post, it had different photos.
When was this?
April 30thand March 17th.
Oh.
Hmm!
Do you think it matters?
Do YOU think it does?
We could keep stum about the whole thing.
Too late.
Well….
Look, I’ll see what I can do it after I’ve moved these boxes.
That would be cool ……. what could you do exactly?
Maybe I can find something in the archives and replace one of them.
April’s maybe.
Perahaps I can create an April 3Oth-a and an April 3Oth-b.
Wow! Perhaps you could learn how to spell perhaps at the same time?
Watch it sunshine.
I’d love to , but it’s raining.
How’s the book by the way.
I’m on the third one.
Third! Does that mean more boxes are on the way.
It does, but I’ve wrapped them in festive paper for you.
What happened to the second book.
It’s being proof read.
By Ms R?
Yep.
I don’t think so, she’s going to Geneva.
Maybe she’ll do it on the train.
I doubt that, she’s got to save the elephants.
There’s a chapter on elephants in the book.
Really?
Yes.
Elephants?
Big grey things.
I know what colour elephants are. I know they’re big.
Perhaps you should go to Geneva then.
Perahaps.
Bye Bob Bob.
Bye, happy almost solstice night.
