Here are my carefully chosen four score and nineteen words inspired by the photo at Friday Fictioneers.
I was looking for a new apartment and saw a nice one advertised. The agent was busy so she lent me the key.
It had a small outside bit, and you got to it like they do in Friends where they climb out of the window.
It was one of those slidy up and down jobs – sash window? Anyway I clambered out to look at the view, and there was a ping and a bang and I realised the window had fallen shut!
To cut a long story short, I ended up dating the firefighter that rescued me. Yea!

DeleteFirefighters, who can resist them? Fun story, and your punchlines are always the best.
ReplyDeleteOne tries ones best my dear, one tries!
DeleteLovely little slice of life, and a happy ending. I'm reading it as if the narrator is writing in her journal.
ReplyDelete"slidy up and down jobs" - :-)
I love your little addition to the photo!
I try to be different,. Sometimes it works sometimes not. Hey, this writing larks only meant to be fun!
DeleteFire fighters are hot, even when they are not.
ReplyDeleteThey certainly get hot!
DeleteNice story Rosey and she got her man!
ReplyDeleteThis may inspire some women, and some men too, to clamber out their windows! ;)
ReplyDeleteNice one. So what would it take to get a Policeman instead, I hear they have arresting personalities :-)
