Dungeon

Yesterday’s corner time: 2 Hours.

We visited a War of the Roses re-enactment at Lincoln Castle.

I was hoping to see lots of blood and gore but no such luck. The people who did die during the battles were just teasing.

Disappointed, I visited the souvenir shop in need of retail therapy. Pleased with the large range of weaponry on offer, I extended my already huge arsenal with the purchase of a hefty wooden sword and went in search of some worthy adversaries.

It wasn’t long before a tall man sneaked up behind me and whacked me with a long stick. I quickly spun around and parried his next swipe. The man reeled backwards before stumbling over the Labrador dog which was at his side.

Hah, he hadn’t seen that coming and it turns out there was a good reason why.

Well, how was I supposed to know he was blind?

When Dad eventually released me from the Dungeon, I crossed off white sticks from my list of suspicious military hardware.

Matthew.
