Teeth Tales - Woohoo Thirty Two

I agree with ScoZen and Luigi we need some more entries for this challenge. So in the interest of quantity over quality here's my second one. Inspired by Blur's Song 2. (And yes, hampsteads really is cockney rhyming slang for teeth).

Dream on

Posted on Tue, 31 Mar 2026

Maybe nuclear weapons.  Which their own intelligence chief told them didn't exist in the first place, but they 'obliterated' in the second place, and then started a war over in the third place.  Them pesky nuclear weapons are mighty persistent.

Robbie says sorry

Posted on Fri, 03 Apr 2026

I think it must have been Robbie, my neighbour's lovely three legged cat, who passed away recently. (He was actually Robin, as in Reliant Robin)  He was an absolute porker and I'm not sure the bridge would have been up to his weight...

I loved this Jane !  It had an air of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy I thought.  And for all we know, maybe this is what happens.  I'm so pleased he kept Floppy's ashes, they were far more important than the watch.

Posted on Wed, 25 Feb 2026

Like Turlough, you have the gift of bringing the mundane to life and making it fascinating, Harry.  And funny. And sad.  And, in this case, just a bit spooky too.  Good writers can make great stories out of apparently very little material, and...

Hi Jane

Hi Jane

This is very intriguing !  Looking forward to what is going to happen to them next.
