Once more unto BwS

I have a flash fiction there this week called Tranparency. Now the really interseting part is, it was inspired by reading around the subject of water on the internet. I sincerely hope that these two characters do not exist and are not carrying on such a synical conversation in an office somewhere in the developed world but they were born out of research and that's scary! I'm sure you'll agree...

The finance free Christmas was Gran's idea. Instead of exchanging things wrapped in paper, they would exchange wishes and that would cost nothing. So for a start, everyone contributed something to the dinner. ...

What he said

I could have cloned another flower or two.
It would have been so easy to do
the dishonest work of a modern moment.

Is not what we have enough?
Sunshine, peace and flowers,
light enough for today?

What a lovely person my niece turned out to be and it was a real pleasure to meet her husband Rudi. We had a very nice meal together at The Happy Villa in Galgorm and Eleanor tells me the fried Icecream goes down a treat :)
