Can You Tell A Story In…

Well, it’s five-word challenge time again! For this week’s challenge, can you tell a story in five words, using the word Email in it somewhere?

Last week, your story needed to contain the word Clock. You sent in some great stories. Here they are:

Stevie Turner:

Clock watching – life gets tedious.

Keto For Beginners:

Clock reminds; time to go!!

Sanandi-jacq:

Clock reflection. Sherlock raises eyebrow.

Ritu:

Did the clock just stop?

The clock strikes twelve. Run!

Can’t turn the clock back.

Clock frozen. Time suspended. Bliss.

Shoot that darned cuckoo clock!

Paul L Mastaglio:

Time to clock off, perhaps?

You could just clock someone!

Is that clock slow again?

Gail L Winfree:

It happened! The clock exploded.

He died watching the clock.

The clock spoke to me.

A distant clock called me.

Happy days without the clock.

My clock forgot to tick.

The clock ticked, then tocked.

A knock, then the clock.

Ruth Scribbles:

The clock struck twelve, then…..

My clock fell and shattered.

I will clock you in.

I was clocked and abandoned.

Val Fish:

Big Ben’s not a clock.

Shenanigans under the clock tower.

Biological clock ticking; Man needed…

Sharon Harvey:

The clock had suddenly stopped.

Tick, tock went the clock.

The clock told a story.
