Friday Fictioneers: Bling Rock-Fraud

Evening everybody, and thanks Rochelle for being there once more, week after week as reliable as time itself. This weeks photo is from Lisa Fox and depicts ancient stones and picnic tables, what a combination, and I’ll try and not be so bloody this week. The seed is growing so I’d better get on with my 100 word tale…

On My Marks…

Get Set…

GO!!!

They stumbled across it walking the dog off-road through the woodland they inherited from Uncle Escuperious along with the wreck of a Mill.

A Useless inheritance; Beautiful spot; no money and nobody remotely sapient would buy it.

But the stones…

They found 4 boulders roughly in a row, some more scattered; were they configured to the stars?!…

2 years later, all trees gone, the grass lush, several more boulders had (ahem) appeared; sowed among the picnic tables.

Daytrippers pay for any old shite, amazed such rich histories lay undiscovered for millennia…

???

“Boulder Prehistoric Mill” year 4 promised to be yet another bumper year.

There we are, 100 words on the suspiciously conceived Boulder Prehistoric Mill… Enjoy!

  1. Ha ha, Shrawl! Reminds me of something I read a long time ago now, where people who had hotels, restaurants, etc. were encouraged to say it was haunted to draw crowds in.
