A house of cards?

He got great deal on his new house.

From the moment he saw it he knew it would suit him perfectly. A little small, but he should be able to pack everything in.

He would have to shuffle his furniture around and change the king size bed for a queen size one, but Jack didn’t see that being a problem.

After a few days spent in the garden with his mower and spades, it would be an ace place to relax! 

It was also quite close to a couple of clubs, including  a comedy one, he always was a bit of a joker! 

Once settled he planned to ask his girlfriend for her hand in marriage. It had been love at first sight, their hearts engulfed in flames of passion. He  felt sure she’d be game.

She loved diamonds and he’d chosen a ring he knew she’d like. 

He just hoped it wouldn’t turn out to be a house of cards!
