Forty-nine words …

Keith's Ramblings

My friend Rosey has a theory that Stonehenge was built by giants who enjoyed a game of croquet. I reminded her the megaliths are 5000 years old, but croquet only dates from around 1650.

‘How d’ya know?’ she asked.

‘Wikipedia’ I said.

‘And you call ME gullible!’ she chuckled!

.

A perfect excuse for me to pop in a picture I took at Stonehenge!

I’ve been writing about my friend Rosey for 14 years. From 130 stories,  I’ve gathered together 50 or so of the best received ones and they can be found HERE!

    Well done. All I could think about for this prompt was Stonehenge and Coral Castle.

      The first one I’ve missed in a while, but when under canvas miles from civilisation, WiFi is non-existent!
