Microfiction Monday #25...


Susan at Stony River hosts this fun theme each Monday, so do pop over and read the others who have signed Mr. Linky. The rules are thus:



Every Monday Susan will post a picture for the subject of your story. Microfiction means the shortest of short stories. Think Aesop's fables, comic strips, or even jokes: complete stories that can be told in under a minute. For this game, the limit is a tweetable 140 characters or fewer, including punctuation and spaces.


Here's today's picture and my contribution.




Maybe this was the wrong location for the picnic,



there was a definite ‘country’ smell in the air.



Or maybe it was John’s beer giving him gas.

Poor John. It's probably not his fault that he has a digestive problem. :)

anthonynorth said...

A problem with many parties, I fear :-)
Enjoyed that.

Gemma Wiseman said...

Yes! There is definitely an aloofness in the air! And it just could be a little too much gas! Very creative!

alessandra said...

Hahaha, this explains the long faces!

Valerie said...

Oh, THAT sort of 'country air' ... that'll teach them not to drink warm beer.

Diane said...

Love me the potty humor!!! :O)

John should lay off the beer!

John needs to learn some restraint when he is around 'ladies', I think!
LOL. Good one this week. Cheers!

I blame the bottle. Nowhere for the gas to. A glass lets it escape!
