Sad days

To the two scumbags ( guys ) who i offered free stuff to take when i left Ramshackle. And u chose to go into the kitchen when u were told not to and take for yourselves my personal property and prescription medication. I know someone who knows everything about you.
If you decide to make ammends we will take this no further.. ignore this message and I can 100 % assure you that justice will be served.
This is your last stop fellas.

The Ramshackle Chronicles…

….the writers are being loaded into the Ramshackle Café for the Monthly Imagination Handicap over 3 hours. Local favourite Mishelley is in barrier 2 which is her lucky number while the grey Old Tom is paradoxically a dark horse in the event in barrier 13. Vincent is a confirmed starter and his trainer has said he is a real gogher. Beverley’s prospects are still a mystery and punters are in suspense. Oh! Oh! One’s playing up and the handler’s are having trouble getting her into the barrier. It’s touch and go whether Clancette will take part in this event but everyone is doing their best. Russell was a late scratching so we are left with a field of fifteen. There has been some late money for James the First but this might just be for the coffee. They’re all in!
They’re off and first to show is Madonna moving around the outside of Old Tom who is gamely trying to keep up with her and the pace is on. One out and one back is Men’s Inc. who wasn’t expected to show today while Sleeping Child is tucked in behind. As they approach the turn Beverley has pulled to the outside. Old Tom is under the whip as usual while Vincent is in the Van. The crowd rises as they hit the 8-furlong post and smash it to smithereens! The field bunches up now and this is the moment they will make their runs. Men’s Inc. has disappeared as expected while Clancette has pulled up lame. Madonna is being pressured by Wine Stain and Kevin is pushing from behind. Inside the last one hundred and it’s anybody’s race. The whips are out and Madam Lash makes a late run. But who is this around the outside arriving with a wet sail? It’s Mishelley! She’s won it! The Jockey has his whip in the air! Second is Wine Stain a length back and Clive is a fast-finishing third! Old Tom who opened at 20/1 has finished at quarter past two and bringing up the rear is a fast fading Kevin.
Ladies and Gentlemen, let us all salute a great ‘Stayer’ in Mishelley, a local favourite, and a winner.

…Some of the runner’s in today’s event will be in the mounting yard this coming Thursday but Wine Stain and Kevin will not be among them due to legal restraints and pressing engagements. Should you want to join in the excitement of the Coup then we look forward to welcoming you to the “Ramshackle Imagination Meeting” on this coming Thursday at 9:30 until 12:30.

Writer’s Imagination Meeting
Ramshackle Café
