Flash Friday Fiction. 26th. August

Yet again G-Man wants our gems of fiction in a mere 55 words. So . . .  today's tragic tale -


Gold Standard

"Never saw a skeleton wearing a medal before. Where did they find it?"
"The derelict priory, Boss."
"I know the place."
"Workmen ripping out some old cupboards found this guy."
"Gruesome. Wonder how long he'd been in there?"
"The medal's a clue, Boss."
"What's this? Strewth!  Olympic Hide and Seek Champion 1904!"

(55 words, including the title)

    Which proves everyone is a champion at something. What a comforting thought for noops like me! 55 gold medal words, Doc.

Thank you for stopping by. To make life easier for you I have turned off the new indecipherable and time-wasting verification words. Would you care to "feedback" to Blogger and complain about them, like I did?
