BloomingFerns

Aka Brief Encounter XIV. You cannot have too many piss-takings of that most godawful “English Treasure” so here’s another one. Behold! In the jolly forest of the blooming ferns Mimi, the fragrant eight-legged caterpillar, indigenous to the forest, has bumped into Manolito, the Hardy Perennial Alien. Mimi, who absolutely loves novelty, oddities and aliens is startled and delighted. Manolito is weary; not by nature but by experience. He’s not universally welcome, especially since he wears his alienness not on his sleeve but brazenly on the front of his t-shirt. Not to worry. Mimi will make Manolito feel at home with offers of chamber music, green tea and sponge cake. Love happy endings.
