William was getting very bored with just working in the potting shed, everyday, talking to Benjamin. He decided to widen his horizons and take a NVQ 3 in Horticulture. After successfully passing his exams, William went back to see Benjamin, and tried to engage him in conversation, it was somewhat of a struggle. Benjamin was not good at conversing.

William: If your delphiniums are not staked properly, what happens to them.

Benjamin: They flop a lot

William: If you have too many plants of the same variety, what do you do with them?

Benjamin: I pot a lot

William: How do you describe your garden to other keen gardeners.

Benjamin: I fib a lot

William: After a hard day, working in the garden, what do you do?

Benjamin: Flop

William: Do you have any pets?

Benjamin: A dog

...on the slake
Tip of southwest Scottish peninsular
Oh small droplets suspended in air moving inland in a circular motion from a large saltwater body of water.
It is my longing to remain in this location for an eternity oh tip of southwest Scottish peninsular.
My journey has been extensive, I have covered many miles - a great many different vistas have passed before my optical systems.


etc. etc.....

Occasionally one has a requirement to quickly evacuate the area.
Your humble narrator feels the need to be far away from the physical discomfort that the party of the second part manouvres into my cardiac organ.
The affection between us appears to be static.
I cannot find my AyUps.
I throw and rotate but still suffer from insomnia.

Oh, well done, Chuffers!!! I like the random precision.

Partially combusted soot particles above a lake.
Flames amongst the firmament.

The tarmac is a grey ribbon with white lines and grass verges.
We travel on the motorway.

(Actually, that's more of a translation than a paraphrase, but anyhow...)
