‘I told you not to wear those stupid heels’ yelled Tom as he tried to bring the inflatable boat under control. A circle of bubbles surrounded the spinning craft as air rushed from one corner. ‘Stick your big toe through the hole and I’ll try and paddle us to the shore’.
‘But what about my toenails?’ cried Millie. ‘I spent a fortune having them manicured yesterday’
Sadly their efforts were in vain as the crumpled craft spluttered one final fart and began sinking.
In the nick of time, a blow-up dolphin came alongside. ‘Climb aboard my hearties’ shouted its captain. Seconds later they were sitting astride and on their way back to safety – until that was, Millie, who was clutching her precious shoes managed to repeat her earlier mishap and punctured the rubber creature’s rear end with a heel.
You’ll be pleased to learn they all got back to terra-firma thanks to the duty lifeguard who was suddenly woken from his siesta by their cries of help.
‘I told you not to admire your stubble in the mirror whilst steering’ screamed Mille from behind as the wobbling tandem left the road and shot into a hedge.

Please don’t let Millie and Rosie get together! Or maybe you should, lol.
Now that’s a thought!
Yeah, Millie and Tom should not be let out unsupervised
Very true! Cheers
Every holiday for this couple would be an absolute nightmare!
Imagine staying in the same hotel!
The very thought is frightening!
Good stories to tell everyone when they get back from holiday though. Or if they get back.
That’s true Iain!
They are a menace, i hope they survive!
I’m pleased to report they did! Thanks Mimi
worse still, being busy taking selfies…
Absolutely! Thanks Reena
Bad decision to wear a heal on a rubber boat.
It certainly was! Thanks so much.
Millie is Rosey’s alter ego? Or sister from another mother :))) Just love reading your stories Keith. I’m grinning ear to ear. You are a riot.
Tell me what you think of this one:
Honest ok

Natasha, you say the nicest thigs! I’m on my way!
Tom and Millie are a couple made-for-each-other…..each getting into trouble.

Thank God the lifeguard’s behind didn’t get punctured 🙂
Very true! Thanks Anurag
