Funny and surprising. I can't say I'm usually fooled by stories with twists, but this one totally drew me in. Excellent job!

Thanks, ohio

not bad but a rather old joke

I knew right away what was going on, since it was so similar to a comedy routine I heard 30-40 years ago.

That was a Jewish woman calling her Jewish mother, going through a long litany of problems, eliciting sympathetic and helpful responses, followed by mother promising to come right over to take care of things. When they finally realize that she has the wrong number, the daughter says, "Does this mean you aren't coming over?"

Other than that, a good story.

Slow day

Must have been a slow day around the ole pub. Not much original here Brit. I expect more from you. Flawless presentation, just no meat.

Good one

Yeah, an old joke but still funny. I'd love to be a fly on the wall at the house of the wife that called him.

But come on, "Oh dear!"?????

Nicely Done

Somehow I voted 5 stars on this one and then forgot to comment! I am getting ancient.

The old jokes were not identical to this story, they had the same superstructure of ideas but were different. Shakespeare "stole" all his plots, but his words! Even in the world of jokes the same written material comes out different depending on which comic is delivering.

Really a nice piece of writing by Britease!

Yay

Not only did he fix another couple's marriage but it seems he's going to be having some big time fun himself.

That was a nice twist: didn't see it coming, and actually got me chuckling, which is a rarity in this category. Well done.

Absolutley Brilliant 5 star+

To fully appreciate just how brilliant it is you need to read it a second time as soon as you understand the twist.

But why am I not seeing any other comments for a story written over six years back - is my browser throwing a wobbly?
