Like a pound shop David Attenborough

"Jesus Christ Michael what the fuck happened to your eye?" My younger sister Maria asks me before stepping in to take a closer look and rather unsportingly pokes it with that special kind of love only a sibling can show to another.

"OW, What the actual fuck Maria, Why did you have to poke it?"

As you might have already guessed compassion isn't one of her strongest points especially when it comes to me anyways. She's not going to volunteer to take a bullet to save my life. To be fair I wouldn't volunteer if the roles were reversed so I guess we're even. 

"Try wiping that stupid smile off your face?"

"What, you can't take a joke now?"

"How the fuck is jamming your finger into my black eye supposed to be funny?"

"If you want to be technical Michael I didn't jam it, I poked it and it was pretty funny actually."

"Well hah fucking hah."

"Don't be lemon Michael, you know it doesn't suit you."

"Is there something you want?"

"Yeah there is, I wanna know how you got your black eye?"

"How about it's none of your business?"

Maria turns to Andy, my so called best mate. "Hey Andy, how'd my brother get his black eye?"

"Oh some chick punched him in bed last night," he tells her very matter of factly. I make a mental note never to tell Andy anything ever again. 

"Damn Michael I didn't know you were into that kind of kinky shit? Hey Andy, why'd she punch him?"

"Oh that part was pretty funny actually. Apparently she came out of the bathroom wearing leopard print underwear and not much else and she got on her knees crawling and roaring and shit and she says to him does this turn you on? and he goes not really I feel like a Pound Shop David Attenborough and she stood up and punched him right in the eye, picked up her things and left him there holding his eye with his hand instead of his cock. That was the funniest shit I ever heard."

Andy starts chuckling away for what must be the twentieth time since I told him how it happened and Maria quickly joins I'm. They're like two caged monkeys jumping up on a chain fence in the zoo howling away in unison. I'll just wait from the visitors gallery to see what shit the pair throw at me next.

What's your poison of choice?

He sat and watched intently as the woman on the table opposite sat stirring a spoon slowly round and round the mug in front of her absent mindedly. Even the clinking of metal on the porcelain couldn't stir her back to reality from whatever land her thoughts had whisked her off to. Her gaze on a fixed point somewhere behind him but whilst physically present, clearly she was deep in thought. Usually he'd have made a point to ask her to stop because the noise grated on him but for some reason with her it felt mean for him to do so. Besides in truth it wasn't doing him any physical harm and it gave him the perfect chance to study her face without her being any the wiser. He let out the briefest of smiles to himself as the thought flashed across his mind that he truly is as fickle as the next man. One rule for one, another rule entirely when it comes to pretty women.  Finally on some level her senses must have alerted her to the clinking sound and she looked down at the mug in s...

P is for pretentious and C is for...

Charles Callaghan sat down in his drawing room to partake in his daily ostentatious breakfast consisting only of two black cups of Grand Moka Matari Coffee made by Bacha Coffee served in a Hermés Cheval D’Orient coffee cup and saucer, completed with a print edition of the Financial Times. No one was exactly sure the precise point in time he'd slipped into being an utter cunt, but associates surmised it was probably around the summer of 2003. It hadn't been a laborious process on his part, he found it was a naturally occurring talent, some might even go as far as to suggest it was a God given one. Whichever it was, once Charles had discovered his niche he saw no reason to deviate from his position. If Charles’ behaviour was to the chagrin of his wife Penelope then she didn't demonstrate it outwardly at least. This may have had something to do with her weekly trysts with her horse riding instructor whereby the only thing being ridden was Penelope somewhere into next week much...

Pink candy floss kisses

From the ongoing series of observations from evening walks... Pink clouds hang statically across the horizon like candy floss kisses. A man checks his teeth in the mirror of a transit van, styles it out by saying hello to me and vanishes quickly inside his house. A man on a racing bike descends quickly down a hill living out his Tour de France dreams in his head with every pedal stroke. Another man cycles past with a red dome skid lid on and a yellow bag which says something about 20 litres of water. All he's missing is a coil of rope around his shoulder and he could join mountain rescue. Oh and a mountain of course in one of the flattest regions in all of England. A rather large man with receding hair pushed back into a pony tail slowly shuffles past. If he was yellow he'd look like the character from the Simpsons. I make a mental note to try and remember which one. It's the same mental note I make every time I see the guy and never remember to do it. On the other side of ...
