The count down

It was mid afternoon and the boy was number crunching at his office desk.

The phone buzzed... twas the Doctor girl.

"Now?" He wondered as he picked up.

I've been blocked in and I can't get to work...

I'll be there in 10 mins he said.

The blue volks made its dash down Payneham road.

1 block from the destination the phone buzzed again,

Hey I managed to get the neighbour to move, I gotta rush to work now.

Thanks for every thing.


He drove back to the office slowly... perhaps, he wondered to himself... she might actually have wanted him around...
