drawing pins & bikes
The blog received yet another email from the' another anonymous tortured soul ', our new regular contributor...yet another tale of horribleness and ghastly deeds...
Hello...I remember another time ,with my mate who lived in a split level. We were looking out the back windows down into the street, bored one afternoon(the 2 open plan top semi-open plan bedrooms without any central heating)which was his room. Down in the street his next door neighbour's kids were playing on their bikes(they were a few years younger than us) I suddenly had a cunning plan:what about we get some drawing pins(I whispered Iago to Roderigo like-see Shakespeare:'Othello')
and drop them down below on the street so that when they ride over the drawing pins their tyres will get punctured!
My stupid mate agreed-so that is what we did:
1.Get drawing pins
2.Drop drawing pins out of windows down on street where neighbours kids on bikes were riding too and fro
3. Bikes ride over drawing pins(to our delight) and can be seen clearly sticking in wheels
4. Cries of anguish and despair once tyres go flat due to drawing pins-then the drawing pins were noticed:
at this point we surreptitiously closed the window, and retreated triumphantly...BUT:
What my mate had forgotten was that he was renound for being something of a wizard when it came to repairing bikes, and also that his mam and the next door neighbour's mam were best mates:
The next day his mam ordered him to repair all the punctures in the 3 bikes-what could he say, but yes!!! ha ha! I had the laugh but that fool had to make reparation!
