One moment of meaningful exhalation

*takes away your rope ladder*

[Is the water sweet enough for you Sir?]

Um…

…myself.

[Is that him crying?
Is that him crying?
Is that him?]

[sorry. very much so.]

…remember to pull the rope to shut the well…that way , no pebbles , but total darkness, a complete break.( and to take a flask too )

Down in the well. Me too. Have one treasured pebble in pocket. For comfort. And to hold. Like worry beads. Only better. “My precioussss”….. (strokes pebble lovingly).

I am gathering pebbles.

I found a red one!

Well I never.

As long as your well definitely isn’t a long-drop… that wouldn’t be very good.

what about marbles, can we drop marbles?

is this one of those “write your own post” dealies, what with the [insert words here]

well fine, then! two can play at that game:

[insert comment here]

I’m not sure that climbing into a well is an option. I think that most people fall into wells. Well, I don’t mean that most people do… I mean that, if one is to enter a well, falling is the most common entry technique, I should think.

Now, having cleared that up, I think you already are mumbling to yourself (that’s what this post is about, isn’t it??)… so here come the pebbles.

Hallo Mr Wind-Up Bird.

Please do not print my job application correspondence without permission.

helllooooooooooooo

is anyone down there?

I swear i heard something.

No i did, i am sure.

Here lets chuck some rocks, i’ll show you.

Are we allowed to drop pebbles if we hear you singing? Or should we drop sweeties in stead?

While you are down there, could you please look for my fire truck toy? I dropped it in there when I was 5. It mean a lot to me. Thank you.

Miles: Hahaha. Hahaha! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Toru: If you would just work at the wig place with me instead of insisting on this writing malarky… ;)

Unreliable: Alright, you can come out now. *throws back your rope ladder*

No, I am going to keep hiding here, if it’s all the same to you. Yes, my feet are getting a bit soggy in the small level of water that was unfortunately left at the bottom of the well, but it’s not as bad as it could be. After all, there’s just the one foot to get wet.

Thank you all for your comments. You are welcome to join me in my well, though it might be a bit of a tight squeeze.

If I turn on the TV, I do hope you won’t venture back up from your well dwelling, crawl your way through my screen and do unthinkable things to my person.

Throwing children down wells is against the Law.

Poor Pebbles.

Unthinkable things to your person, NAGA?

Um, I am not that kind of blogger, you know.
