The Dumped Duck

This is the result of a 5 minutes exercise that JC and I did today at her local pub. The idea for this was base your postcard fiction in a pub. We both produced 2 pieces of work (see http://curiouslyspeaking.blogspot.com/ and http://moggie711.blogspot.com/ for the other results.

The Dumped Duck

Mike suggested we go out to our local pub, Wetherspoons 'The Dumped Duck' for tea. I was pleasantly surprised as normally Mike thought eating out was frivolous.

He frowned as I chose lasagna and chips as he sensibly selected Cesar salad and presented his twenty percent off discount voucher. Mike was quiet and distracted as I talked about my day at work and an unusual patient who had come in for treatment.

'Are you OK Mike?' I asked.

'Not really Kas, I have something to tell you'.......
