Yay! Go for it @dasczecher :)

Thank you for the affirmation, and for checking that it is indeed 50 words, lol.

My first time to join the contest too, but as I understood it from the mechanics, it does need to be exactly 50 words. Usually they have a 'word for the week' - one word that has to be used in your poem/short story. This week though sky is the limit as they have decided not to set a word for the week.

I will await your entry. Tag me in a comment once done, so as I don't miss it :)

Thanks @dreamiely!!!

I think I need my beauty sleep before attempting this (just back from my Hols)

....I feel a little pressure building now!!!

Just noted that your tag doesn't begin with a '#' - thought I'd point this out because I want you to win this one!!!

Haha no pressure! I'm not sure though if tag needs to include a hash, i think it is ok as is...

Ok, I've done one!

Don't take the p*ss though I'm a sensitive guy (and not very arty farty)!!! :-)
