Why this story? you may ask. Because I'm off to Tenerife with my daughters and granddaughter for a week, and we might see some bright lights while we're there. Also because we fly out at the crack of dawn tomorrow and I haven't finished packing! So here's one I wrote earlier - three years earlier, to be exact. Hope it meets with approval.

HEN PARTY
Six of us flew to Tenerife for
Leanne’s hen do. The apartment was pretty basic, but it didn’t matter because
we were out every night.
In one night-club this creepy bloke
bought us all drinks, and when we staggered home in the pitch dark he tried to
kiss me. Eeuuw!
He pinned me against a palm-tree – I still
remember his long pointed teeth – but then the moon came out like a spotlight,
there was a horrible screech, and a black shape flapped up into the tree. When
I looked round, the bloke had just vanished.
A real weirdo, that one!
He sounds right batty! :)
ReplyDeleteHeehee! Very clever, MH.
DeleteOh, deliciously creepy story, Liz!

Travel, Fiction and Photos
And a lucky break for her I might add..
ReplyDeleteYou don't get much luckier than that.
DeleteWhat a tasty treat, Lizy! Have a lovely time with the girls.
ReplyDeleteI intend to. Thank Helen.
DeleteI guess she wasn't much of a cinema goer. Or she might have recognised Christipher Lee
ReplyDeleteYe gods! That shows your age, Neil, and mine!
DeleteGoing on adventures like these are the best of all. Creepy guy! Are you sure he wasn't a phantom maybe?
ReplyDeleteMore like a vampire.
DeleteI didn't imagine the story going that way at the beginning! Great story! :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Lauren. Glad i surprised you.
DeleteMade me chortle, Liz
ReplyDeleteThanks cea
Deletewhat a lucky break. she should thank her lucky stars... er, the moon for it. :)
ReplyDeleteShe should.
DeleteHar! Har! Lucky he vanished otherwise he might have been a real pain in the neck.
ReplyDeleteheehee! He would!
DeleteNow the moon's out, with her luck there'll be a suspiciously hairy chap with big teeth around the next corner, I expect :-)
ReplyDeleteOh no¡Not the Werewolf!!
DeleteNarrow escape. Enjoy yourself back in your old hunting grounds. We're going back to ours next month.
ReplyDeleteWe're only here for a week, but it will be nice to catch up with people.
DeleteShe obviously hadn't eaten enough garlic with her stake...er, steak
ReplyDeleteGroan!
DeleteLady Luna is a true savior... a lot at stake with a bloke like that
ReplyDeleteLucky the moon was full!
DeleteDear Liz,
ReplyDeleteThat little affair could've been a bit of a bite. Have a great time in Tenerife.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thanks Rochelle.
DeleteThat definitely could have ended on a whole nother note!
ReplyDeleteI was in the mood to write an upbeat ending!
DeleteFangs for the funny story, Liz!

ReplyDeleteWould you want to?
DeleteOho! Vanny the Vampire is foiled again :)
ReplyDeleteCurses! he cried!
