SMUGGLER’S  REST

 

 

My wife and I finally decided on a holiday on the south coast, accommodation was booked, cases packed, a taxi picked us up on time and dropped us off at the railway station. Train arrived on time and we found a seat quite easily.

It was a pleasant journey, no mishaps apart from being just a little late at our destination, but hey we couldn’t complain.

We had a little wait outside of the railway station, it seemed that they didn’t have a lot of taxis down here, but we were able to survey the town around the railway station as we stood and waited.

Time is the most precious thing we have, but we are the poorer if we can't spend a little time on a friend

Sure enjoyed the story Tony. I think of stories like that...I wonder if we could ever go back in time? Oh well, you sure kept my interest and I found the story most worthy of praise. Thanks for sharing, you never disappoint.

Maria thank you for commenting. This started out as a little project and the story just developed around that project.
We always tend to think of going back in time, but could it not be that the past sometimes jumps into the future and we just walk through it for a brief moment...Tony (potleek)

I did enjoy this read, Tony, I always love going back in time, but this was good...

that last bit wasn't expected, but worked to add to the spookiness, much enjoyed, Zy

Zy thanks for your comment, as I said to Maria this started out as a project from my writing group, to describe a character and add that character into a story.
This just seemed to write itself, how to get old money took a little thinking out, then I added the last part as a kind of twist.
But glad you enjoyed, thanks again...Tony (potleek)
