Spin me a tale

[imomus]

I'm spending the day on ICE trains, getting from Berlin to Holland, then performing in the evening, wearing funny clothes and making stuff up.



I planned to give Click Opera a holiday today, but at the last minute I thought I'd post this photo and ask you, dear reader, to make stuff up yourself: a short (fifty words or so?) narrative related in some way to the picture.

I won't say anything at this stage about what the photo is, who took it, who's in it, where or why it came about. Think of it as a Rorschach onto which you can project whatever you like -- a rumination, a story about the characters, a joke, a piece of philosophising, a weather forecast, a sci-fi scenario, a haiku, a fashion report. Be creative, be kind, give me something interesting to read when my iPod crackles to life in the Dutch wifi!

It is the fiftieth year of the rule of the Glorious NuLabrPrty in the former UK, and Prole Susan System-Administrator is taking her daughter to be microchipped for her eighth-birthday EnCitizning Cermny. She proudly holds in her hands four fresh fish, her reward from the state for informing on a neighbour who left his bin out on the wrong day.
