    Our 4th 500 Word Open Mic was another resounding success in front of a very exclusive and very appreciative audience.
    Members of The Written Word Group read out their 500 Word stories and Poems.
    We also had a new coming member, who read out a beautiful poem in Spanish.
    A first for our 500 Word Open Mic. And it was very well received. A sign of things to come perhaps.
    We also have to thank Dave for once again setting up the sound system.
    And Angela for Videoing the proceedings.
    We will be posting the best of these Videos on our blog.

The Rambla - A walk on the wild side - a short story written by M. E. Heed

I don't know whether it is my body language or when I put my walking-trainers on that Alfie starts running up and down the hallway, sensing we are going for a walk. I open the door for him to go out in the garden but he stays right there next to me, looking at me expectedly, I say: “Good morning Alfie” and he looks at me with that angelic look cocking his head to one side, wagging his bushy tail and lifting his ears gracefully as if to say: “come on let's go for a walk this morning”, but I don't say anything. Then I do the preparations, because with me it's all about following a procedure before we set off for a walk in the Rambla, maybe that's a give away! I put my Fitbit on my wrist, my phone in my pocket, sunglasses on, the walking stick on my right hand side and now we are all set to go. As soon as I reach for his harness and the lead he’s off, giving his short wolf cries of excitement as much as to say come on, let's go! I open the garden gate, and he ...

The Dead Fly Sketch - A Monty Python Parody by Barry Denson

Image
[Scene: A sun-washed terrace bar in coastal Spain. Plastic chairs. Slight scent of aftershave and calamari. Barry stands at the bar, holding up a pint of beer with a floating arthropod  inside. Luis, the barman, is cheerfully drying glasses that do not look especially clean.] Barry (British, incensed but polite): Hola. Excuse me. There’s a dead fly in my beer. Luis (smiling broadly): Ah sí! Is garnish . We call him Pedro . He always choose the best drinks. Barry: He’s floating! Face down in my Estrella like a drunk sailor. He’s clearly dead . Luis: No, señor — he is... how you say... tranquilo . Very relaxed fly. Spanish fly, no? Barry: He’s not relaxed, he’s deceased! This fly has lost interest in all things fizzy! It has popped its last bubble! It has buzzed its final buzz! Luis (peering in): Hmm. Maybe he is… a little bit... muerto. Tiny bit. But still very good fly. Local! Barry: Local?! He’s doing the backstroke in the afterlife! Luis: We use only fresh ingredi...
