I left a half-finished story here last night (just look for the latest story in my account). If anyone would like to have a go at finishing it, please do. Just copy my beginning and add your own ending. Just for fun. Anyone who writes better than I do is automatically disqualified, tee hee ;). Let me know you've 'entered' by leaving a comment below with a link to your piece. Competition ends midnight tomorrow (Sunday). Winner announced below on Monday.

You baited me with the name aliases, AlbertF. Not much time available for this, but I added 369 words as a comment below your post. It is borderline idiotic, but biggy fun. Please send cookies.

Sorry Albert, bit busy myself but here are some suggestions someone else might find useful…
The shop gets broken into. All the pot seeds are gone. Somebody has even tried smoking the hemp ponchos hand-sewn by hill-tribes in Thailand. What with all the bombings and muggings in the streets it’s enough to make one cynical. Linda has trouble sleeping. One night she dreams the Taliban have taken over and she is forced to wear a burqa.
The biggest surprise of all comes when Graham announces that he is taking a course in martial arts. He has applied for a job as a contractor in Afghanistan. He is also seriously considering voting BNP in the next election.
Peace and Willow wonder if they aren’t in the wrong business. Perhaps they should rename the shop New Age Security and switch to things like burglar alarms, pepperspray and deadbolts?

I couldn't have bettered Dendrite's effort.

Out of all the thousands of entries, Dendrite's is by far the best. Dendrite is therefore the winner. Chuck's half an entry shows great promise and Ewan is highly commended for eschewing the competition altogether.
