Good Times

It was a Monday
When we took the car
And drove it to the shops-
I think it was a Tuesday-
I'm pretty sure it wasn't-
No you're right it was a Tuesday,
Cause Derek had the permit
It's a clear way on a Monday
Yeah but we parked there
So it must have been a Tuesday
When we took the car-
Did Derek give that permit back?
He said he will when he went to Queensland
We should chase that up
We will
Still
We were in the car
Driving to the shops-
I'm serious that permit wasn't cheap
Relax we'll get the permit back
That's what you said about the vacuum cleaner
Well that was different he's got allergies
Like what?
You saw the rash
Its eczema
He has to clean the carpet cause his cats got hairy bollocks
He should get that thing de-sexed
He can't he breeds them it's his
Way of coping with a difficult divorce
As far as I can see his only allergy is
Giving back the shit he borrows from his neighbours
So we were driving north-
I mean the guy can still afford to go to Nusa
Yeah what's your point?
He should just buy a vacuum cleaner
Look I leant it in good faith,
How was I supposed to know
He'd take it inter-state and give it
To his niece for her first communion
I didn't know he had a niece!
It's complicated see his sister had a friend who died
She's barren so she felt obliged to care for-
So it's not actually his niece
Well not by blood
That's even worse I can't believe he
Gave our vacuum cleaner to a random stranger
So we were driving north-
South
South towards the-
North?
No it was northern suburbs
South?
That's right
The map was upside-down but
We got there in the end
And parked outside the fish and chip shop
Fruit shop-
Milk bar-
Hardware?
Bake- NO, HABERDASHERY!
It's next door
To the house and home shop
We went in and bought a vacuum cleaner
When we came outside
We had a parking fine
Cause Derek had the permit
He said he'd give it back!
He didn't!
Evidently!
I won't be paying that!
I'm trying to tell a fucking story!
Well tell it then
I will
Good!
I'm telling it right now!
Well tell it then!
Yes I'm trying to!
Good then tell it!
Fine I'll tell it!
We were driving
Home after the shops
But when we pulled into the driveway
Felt a bump
Got out
And realized we'd run over Derek's cat
Who was being held
By Derek at the time
We took the permit from his cold dead hands and ran away
GOOD TIMES.
