THE REUNION
by John Yeo
The Old Curiosity Shop was packed full of ancient memorabilia. Old Jake who ran the shop was always very friendly and willing to chat to passers-by.
He was a very great friend of ours, he would rush out of the shop whenever we passed. This was a Monday morning and he excitedly ran out of his shop to show us his mystery car.
"Hey you two! Look!"
We were astonished, parked next to Jakes cycle was the most amazing Minicar.
" I have a funny feeling, I know where this came from, It is my 70th. birthday today, and I have not heard from my wayward, wild-child for years. There was a ribbon placed on the radiator grill."
At that moment three Harley Davidson motorcycles roared by and as they passed there was a gleeful shout of, "Happy Birthday!" from the leading motor cyclist.
Then we jumped back quickly, as some fireworks exploded in a colourful display across the road from the shop.
The birthday party lasted all day, when Jakes mischievous son returned.
