Friday 55 Flash Fiction # 115 Rubbish....



Stacey was clearing the loft.


A bird cage, the nest of tables, a light fitting,


battered old suitcase, old shoes, clothes, a tea set.




Mick would be so pleased she'd thrown everything out.


Elsewhere........


"I've got the stash tucked away in the loft in a battered old suitcase" Mick told the rest of the gang....



Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.

When will the men folk realize there's not a safe place in a house that we won't at least THINK about cleaning? :)

Well Mick tried but was thwarted by Stacey Tony

Well spotted Jinksy and thanks.

Glad you enjoyed it Misty x


I'm pleased it had you wondering Ron, that's the aim. x

It was the worst thing for Mick Shakira! LOL
