R Is For...
Once again, I felt like I had had enough of it, but still, didn't have where to go and didn't know what to do.It was a cycle: I tried; it didn't work; I became tired; recovered my energy; I tried. Cycles are great in biology questions, I always get them right, but when you're stuck in one it is the prime reason for tiredness. Repetitiveness, roundness, restlessness; all of your sentences become alliterations that make you want to shut your thoughts and run away.

‘Anything Else?’
Anything Else? Short story“So that’s two bacon and egg with red sauce; one bacon and egg and sausage with brown sauce and mustard; a breakfast box; one egg and pepper bap; a sausage roll; one breakfast wrap; and six Nom-Noms.” I look at the Roofer with his stubble and his nice eyes. “Anything else?” He shakes his head and I tell him how it’s sixteen twenty, love. When I give him his change I watch his tight bum as he leaves the shop. Phwoar he could tile my roof anytime!Chloe’s too busy asking a woman with tea-cakes and a ginger man if there’s ‘Anything else?’ to laugh at my joke. Perhaps sixt...
