Snake Charmers Extraordinaires!


While Caddoc was busy with  paint pots galore Ada decided she'd like something more. She started to mull over lots of ideas to lighten the dullness of forty long years with Caddoc, who spent so much time in his shed his to'ings and fro'ings always by-passed her bed. She enrolled in a class on "Seducing With Snakes" and perfected a 'charming' technique that would make Cad less resemble a wet little weed, with knees all a tremble but a lover who'd feed her with fantasies - the kind a girl needs to perk up her day... And I think this cartoon says it all, in a way...

       
Tess put the Snake Charmer notion into people's heads at Magpie Tales this week. Ada, as might be expected, interpreted it in her own unique fashion...

  1. Ada would be better served charming Caddoc than snakes though I can see that might prove difficult!

  5. Poor Caddoc! Maybe it's just anno domini getting to him. I know the feeling . . . or do I mean I've forgotten it?

  6. I believe there are practitioners who might be able to help you with TOTAL RECALL. Dr FTSE. Look in your Yellow Pages, why don't you?

  7. Anne Onymous . . thanks for the suggestion. But I'm a Doctor. I know about these things. I'm paid to know about these things.

  8. What's all this about practitioners? Call round Trellis Mansions one afternoon when I'm practising my tootle-flootle, my good Doctr. You may discover feelings you never knew existed after listening to that for half an hour...Possibly you should bring ear plugs...

  10. Ada had better be careful when playing with snakes. She should keep in mind that Medusa also used snakes, and that may not be the effect she desires with Cad!

  15. She needs to learn to play the French horn... or the Welsh horn. Is there a Welsh horn? Ada? Ada? Speak to me!

  16. Dear Stafford Ray,
    There are Welsh sheep with horns, and no doubt many horny Welshmen, but I know of no horn named after the Welsh - France won the bid for that honour... Although Google tells me there is a "Welsh Horn Quartet", I believe that should read " A Welsh, French Horn Quartet" to be precise. Precision is necessary in all aspects of music, wouldn't you agree, Mr Ray?
