It’s my first time so be gentle with me. I wanted to try and fit something in blog wise into the half time break between Brazil and Belgium, what a game!
Serial child abuser, “The Old Lady Who Lived in a Shoe” (TOLWLIAS) has returned from her 35 years incarceration to find that her many children have left home to pursue careers in podiatry, chiropody and ethics, as well as a handful developing unhealthy foot fetishes.
Her hopes of her shoe home being preserved and her possessions intact was dashed as she arrived back at the site of her heinous crimes to see a giant prosthetic foot sculpture moulded into the giant shoe, and her former home populated by giants.
She is now very, very old and living in a caravan.

Enjoyed this – so many of those old nursery rhymes have some dark undertones! Good use of half time break too, quite a game 🙂

Welcome to Friday Fictioneers. What a great first story! I love when Nursery rhymes are used and “abused”..

Ha! Thanks, thought I’d try something different. It’s very habit forming this blogging caper, and a change seemed like a good idea at the time, I very rarely try fiction as fact is often stranger. Thanks for your warm welcome anyway!

Oh, and let me tell you, FF is VERY addictive.
To tell the truth, most of my FF are based on truth and real life so… the other peeps seem to accept it 😉

Does she have cats?

No she wasn’t allowed after the child abuse, she was banned from keeping any sort of pets apart from the 17million flies she and every other person on the planet has, but many rebuff ownership of these.
