Deja vu!

for Friday Fictioneers

If today’s tale seems familiar it’s because I’ve based it on one from three years ago.  I’m a bit pushed for time today as any minute now, Amazon-person will be ringing my bell and handing me a new PC.  I’ll be off-line for a while getting it set up!

Last night my girlfriend bathed in champagne bath oil.  She climbed out all pink and shiny and I  couldn’t resist giving her hot little body a squeeze, but she went pop, shot from my arms and hit the ceiling!  (Only kidding, it was more of a squeak than a pop)

I fancy bathing in red wine, a cheeky little Claret with a hint of blackcurrant although I’d probably emerge looking like an enormous beetroot.  Perhaps a well-crafted beer would more sensible.

For now, I’ll make do with a squirt of citrus washing-up liquid, and pretend it’s gin and lime!

    Exotic wash 🙂
    It’s all in the mind! Pretending can seem real!

    Aw new toy… they always take time to set up.

    To most women this guy’s bubbles would be sexy. Maybe some clean fun later.

      Absolutely right! I won’t be writing about that. Cheers Tannille

    Only in our imagination can we have all that we want.

    A well-crafted beer would more sensible. Sounds sensible to me!

    So long as he knows which one to bathe in and which one to drink, no harm done

    Enjoy the new computer, don’t mix it with too much champagne or wine…

    A new PC. A likely story. I read that they re-opened the pubs!

  8. Gabriella's avatar Gabriella July 8, 2020 / 17:22

    I’ll pass them all. I am a shower person. 😉 Enjoy the new PC!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings July 9, 2020 / 09:30

      How about a squirt of boozy shower gel? Thanks, Gabriella.

    You’re so clever. Well done.

    i guess that will do to endure the serious task on hand. 🙂

    Keith, this made me laugh out loud. Such great visuals. Make me think you were drinking bubbly when you wrote it. The frog is adorable. Congrats on your new PC!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings July 9, 2020 / 09:38

      Thanks so much for your lovely comment – it was prosecco actually! Cheers.

    Dear Keith,

    I’ve reasons for preferring showers to baths. You’ve just given me another. 😉 Bubble and Squeak, eh? Fun stuff.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

      Nothing like a champagne shower! Thanks for giving me an idea for dinner tonight!

    Yes, you must watch out for the porch pirates. I hope you are enjoying your new toy. Funny and very creative story. Beer baths are a thing I’ve heard.

  14. Dale's avatar Dale July 9, 2020 / 03:29

    I remember this one!
    Hope your set up is going fine…
    Till then, I shall drink the champagne and soak in the soapy suds…

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings July 9, 2020 / 09:48

      Up and running! I was going to say I’ll join you with the champers and suds, but that sounds naughty!

      • Dale's avatar Dale July 9, 2020 / 10:14

        And…. Naughty is bad? 😉

  15. Natasha's avatar Natasha July 9, 2020 / 06:30

    I like how you let your imagination run riot!! 🙂
    Good one. All the best with the new PC.
    Make sure you handle it with care, else who knows – pop goes the weasel!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings July 9, 2020 / 09:51

      Half a pound of tuppenny rice… you’ve got me started now! Thanks so much, Natasha.

    Hi Keith – well you’d look like someone we see fairly often – orange tinted .. .take care about that!!

    Enjoy the new pc … good luck with the set up … stay safe – Hilary

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings July 9, 2020 / 09:55

      … now you come to mention it! Thanks so much, Hilary, look after yourself.

  17. hilarymb's avatar hilarymb July 9, 2020 / 10:07

    orange – not a good thought, beetroot, or rose distinctly better … you too take care – H

  18. ceayr's avatar ceayr July 9, 2020 / 11:05

    This reads as though you’ve already started on the gin, Keith.
    You need to take better care of your ‘girlfriend’!

    Ah! What a fickle girlfriend. Nice little daydream 😀

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings July 10, 2020 / 08:57

      Oh yes! Thanks so much.

  20. draliman's avatar draliman July 9, 2020 / 19:45

    A nicely crafted ale, perhaps.
    Good luck with your new PC!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings July 10, 2020 / 08:58

      That would be my choice! Thanks Draliman.

  21. wmqcolby's avatar wmqcolby July 9, 2020 / 23:59

    I would probably be drunk by this time. But, hey, the wine flows like beer — or something like that. Super story, Keith!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings July 10, 2020 / 08:59

      Absolutely! Pleased you liked it, thanks so much.

    Beats water any time. This reminded me of Benny Hill’s “The Fastest Milkman in the West”. Bathing his girl friend in milk.

    Good one Keith! The wine sounds splendid. I’ll take it. Good story!

    Happy new PC! Worth toasting if you can get it up and running first time.
