Life is the same, again and again. I get up, go to work, get in, go to bed. I go shopping every Saturday; go to the beach every Sunday. 1
This morning, I went to the beach and found a bottle washed up. 2

Tall, dumb, British guy.” 5
Made my day, that did.6
Author notes
This is based on a friend of mine, who threw a bottle into the ocean with a note in it, and some guy in Holland found it and wrote back...Hehe, but he wrote something about pizza, I think, lol. They're now pen-friends. I thought it was a sweet story, so I'm sharing it with you all...
What did you think? Please comment!

This is so simply said...with minimum words/maximum effect!

If there's one thing I've noticed about British folks, it's that they've got a pretty goofy sense of humor; not that I mind, 'cause it they didn't, Monty Python wouldn't have been as funny as they were/are. I thought this was funny, too; as an American, I doubt I'd end up doing something like it, but hey, one never knows in today's world...oy

The humor! The irony! The flare! The style! The winner? (Probably, good luck with this!!)

I had hoped you would come back and play again. and once again I am not disappointed. You have taken a dreary existance and added a ray of sunshine. how many of us have dreamt of that bottle on the shore? Isn't it just another form of lottery?
Thank you so much for adding a note of style to this contest.
