She’s a fickle filly, Fanny. Capricious as they come.

I invite her round for supper. No thanks, she says.

Seven-thirty, she turns up! Typical.

Yes please, then no thanks. 

That one, then this one. 

Yes I do, then no I don’t.

If she decided to have a brain transplant she’d change her mind!!!

Get it?.

oo

    Being capacious is so unsettling.

      Thanks so much for dropping by. There are so many lovely but underused words out there.

        You’re most welcome & there was a time I felt the same way, but didn’t anticipate a seizure disorder suddenly in my later years so now I’m re-learning most of what I know. As well as some newer concepts like technology, lol. Great day to you my friend.

      I might just take her to my friend’s party next week!

    I think I might know Fanny! So to speak. Very clever pun at the end, Keith! I would expect nothing less from you. Bravo! 😀

      So to speak!!! I wasn’t sure anyone would notice the pun so I’m really pleased you did. Cheers Sunra.

    Being chronically indecisive myself, I have a good deal of sympathy for Fanny. Glad you bear with her so patiently, Keith. 😉

    I used to be indecisive, but now I’m not too sure!

    The struggles of uncertainty. Well done, Keith.

    Don’t we all have that one friend? If not… maybe we are that one? Fun stuff, Keith!

      • Dale's avatar Dale February 15, 2022 / 12:11

        Right. It’s what I was wondering about myself 😉
