An intricate looking wristwatch
Looking at the watch, frightened Gordon out of his shoes!
Gordon walked down the busy Main Street of the big city. He looked for a place to have a cup of coffee. Suddenly a hand with the strangest watch appeared from behind. In the meantime a hand closed around his elbow. He was pushed to the side of the pavement.
‘Don’t make a sound or try to run!’ an icy voice whispered.
‘Take this watch, as soon as the long arm reaches ten past two throw it away as far as you can! Don’t hesitate, just do it!’
Gordon stood perplexed and still. Watch in hand, the stranger gone.
Suddenly a taxi came veering right up to him. He jumped right out of his shoes avoiding been driven over. The watch flew out of his hand and smashed to pieces against the shop wall.

Mens verloor meer as horlosies in vandag se verkeer.

Ek besef dit! My Afrika agtergrond het die taxi en raakry gesien!

Baie goed geskryf.Gelukkig het die bom nie ontplof nie en die storie eindig goed!

Sê juis vir Tina, my Afrika agtergrond weet van taxis en raakry, nie van ontploffings nie!

Great little story. Sounds like something out of the Twilight Zone 🙂

Ha ha it happens! Slip of the finger.

Dankie. Suid Afrika bly maar deel van my ondervindingswêreld. Net die werklike bom storie hoort nie heeltemaal daar nie.

Dankie jong, ek het heeldag nie lus gehad vir skryf nie. Trompie se narkose en uitsny van gewas pla maar heelryd. Die een het toe darem gekom toe ek gaan sit het en myself gedwing het om te begin.
2015-08-27 at 12:38 pm
Ag foeitog,ek hoop alles is reg met Trompie.Dis so ontstellend as mens se hondjie siek is!
2015-08-27 at 9:20 pm
Dankie jong, ek het skoon n “af”dag gister gehad. Vandag gaan hul die verbande afhaal en dalk die dreineringpypie uithaal. Dis n groot sny wat gemaak is.
2015-08-28 at 5:09 am
Laat weet asseblief hoe dit met die outjie gaan..drukkie!
2015-08-28 at 6:28 am
Die dreineringbuis is uitgehaal. Moet hom maar net nog rustig hou dat hy nie die wond ooptrek nie. Hy is okay, ogies raak nog maar bietjie dof. Nou net wag vir uitslag van die weggestuurde stukkie. Dankie vir drukkie.

Dankie en geniet jou wegbreek!
