For those of you who are here for the first time, just hover your cursor over the Stories link above to get started, and then choose either Stories for All or Stories for Children. However, if you're feeling a little too weary for such advanced  exercise, make your first tentative steps into the site from the selection of humorous stories listed below. 

Slim Pickings - do their bums look big in this? 

You Have Reached Your Destination - Winter  2011 Short Story Competition winner.

Arrest Ye Merry Gentlemen - incompetent Yuletide thieves strike it not so lucky.

Boundless - Autumn 2011 Short Story Competition winner.

Ivana and the Pie Eaters - lunchtime will never be the same after reading this. 

Learning the Spin - Summer 2011 Short Story Competition winner.

Thank You, Mr Rankin - it was a hot August night...

The Adventures of the Cosmic Sword - Spring 2011 Short Story Competition winner.

If You Go Down to the  Woods Today... - revenge is a dish best served cold.

Romantic Fiction - gentle humour in a library. 

Those are just a few of our standalone stories, and there are many more inside.

We've also got two series: 
 
Huw's Garden - features Huw Windsor, who inherits a property in Portugal, but finds out that life is not quite as straight forward as he was
hoping in his sunny paradise. 

Four episodes now available. 
 
Nelson's Column - ever wondered what your cat is thinking? Nelson lifts the lid on the feline world and what they think about us, in his very own
irreverent  way. 

Nine stories now uploaded. 
 
And there's even something for the junior members of the family. 
 
Join Spid and Jed, the naughtiest spiders the world has ever seen, in Riverside. 
 
All they want is Brave Cake, but that's only given to the brave and courageous, and they're a couple of feckless, workshy idlers. 
 
Follow their doomed attempts in a very funny series that appeals to adults as well. 

Eleven adventures now online.

Fancy some more visual humour? Then check out Cartoons for a variety of styles and laughs.

And if you like quirky, amusing rhymes take look at Poems & Rhymes. As you can imagine, I had to think long and hard for that title.
