This challenge is set at 99 words, no more, no less.
He said he was going to take her away for the weekend, saying it was a surprise and she’d love it.
She envisioned romantic candlelit dinners in a suite in a fancy hotel, soft music, and perhaps, just perhaps, he was going to propose.
The joke was on her though.
She had candlelight all right, but that was only because the batteries died in the torch.
Dinner had to be caught, gutted and cooked on an open fire.
Her suite was a sleeping bag in a battered tent.
As for the proposal….. she didn’t hang around to find out.

In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too.
On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts.
From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives.
We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

Some weekends, even the best laid plans can end like that can’t they, everything about it is wrong so you go home and lick your wounds..good one Di I feel I’ve had something similar happen to me involving camping…
Hubby is King of the single camp burner breakfast (I hate him sometimes!), managing bacon, egg and sausage plus a mug of tea, all steaming hot.
Ahh Di does it get any better…😇
Yep………… that second mug of tea! I may be Queen of the two pan dinner on the boat, but cooking on a camp fire, nah. It’s all his!
Haha! Fun story. I’m with the woman on this one ;).
I wouldn’t have either! 🙂
Unmet expectations! Great take on the prompt!
Thanks Charli.
