for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt where the given word is Widdershins and the limit, 75 words .
.
.
“Keef?” he asked. “I’m drivin’ you to the airport”.
I jumped in.
“I’m Widdy,” he said heading off in the wrong direction.
“Unusual name,” said I as he drove the opposite way down a one-way street.
“Short for Widdershins,” he said, attempting an anti-clockwise circuit of a roundabout.”
“Why Widdershins?” I asked as we entered the park via the exit.
“Something to with me being born bum-first,” he said directing me towards the wrong gate.
.
By the way, widdershins means in the wrong or contrary direction, or anticlockwise!
Don’t think i’m “weddy’ to have “Widdy” drive me anywhere!

🙂 The son of friends of mine asked his parents for a end-of-college gift – a ticket to the place of THEIR choice, as a surprise to him. He didn’t know where he was going to until he reached the airport. (His mama did, of course, so she made sure he had rain-gear in a bag she handed him at the airport… they sent him to the Scottish Highlands for two weeks. He had a (cool misty rainy) blast.

What a great idea! I’m sure he had a wonderful time. Before my daughter moved to Scotland a few years ago I’d never been there – it’s like a very damp Heaven on Earth!

Love your take on widdershins. Makes me wonder: If you take the wrong turn often enough, then surely you’re bound to end up in the right place.

Mr. Widdershins, I presume. I used to have a saying, “You can’t be lost if you don’t care where you’re going.” Might apply here. Another of Keith’s clever and witty creations.
