Can You Tell A Story In…

Posted on April 25, 2024 by Esther Chilton

Hello, all. I hope you’re having a good week. Here’s a new story challenge for you:

Can you tell a story in 24 words? You must use the following words somewhere in the story:

  • SHOWER
  • BISCUIT
  • FRAUD
  • SKIP

Last week’s prompt was to tell a story in 14 words using the following word in it somewhere:

  • CREDIT
  • DRAGON
  • PLANE

Here are your hilarious stories:

Darlene:

Before the dragon boarded the plane, he checked he had all his credit cards.

Kim Smyth:

I lost my credit card before boarding the plane! Damn! Dragon seeing opportunity lost!

Trent’s World:

“The dragon is headed for our plane.  Please swipe your credit card to live.”

Nicola Daly:

‘And all credit for this dragon drawing – so wonderfully realistic!’
‘It’s actually… a plane.’

–

‘That dragon drawing’s a credit to you, son. Very realistic.’

‘Dad, it’s a plane.’

Christopher Farley:

To give credit to the dragon, he was bigger and faster than a plane.

Christine Mallaband-Brown:

Parker took credit for the dragon plane. But Dave Iron had designed it. (twofer)

Treehugger:

Credit Cardiff airport with patriotism. They have a plane shaped like a Welsh dragon.

Richard Felix:

Failed dragon slayer bought plane ticket on credit; burnished destiny awaits.

Val Fish:

Well, would you credit it, a dragon piloting a plane! Whatever next, flying pigs?

Sharron P:

Flying by dragon? Absurd! Would you credit it? No thanks, I’ll go by plane.

    Come here Biscuit! You’re such a fraud – you roll in muddy puddles and yet you’re scared of the shower. Don’t skip away from me!

    Sally decides to skip the bar tab; a form of fraud, then takes a shower at home before snacking on a biscuit. Bad Sally!

    The fraud happened between one and three pm- after they threw the shower in the skip, but before they bought the biscuits. .

    I admit I am a fraud. I frequently skip my 10K run, enjoy a nice hot shower and settle down to tea and biscuits.

    That biscuit was a fraud. Enticing me into the skip to retrieve it, only to discover it wasn’t a Hobnob. I need a shower!
