Potato Story

Post: # 189561Post Andy Hamilton »

can we write a coherent story and have a vegetable in every sentence? Well, I think it is worth a go, I will start with the first sentence to give it a head start. Please if you can copy and paste the whole story so that it is easy for people to jump in if the post gets long.

Chip lived in the ground, he was a lonely potato as none of his brothers and sisters had grown.

Chip lived in the ground, he was a lonely potato as none of his brothers and sisters had grown. But he had a mate in another plot called Spud, unfortunatly Spud had a chip on his shoulder as his family had developed blight, which made Chip turn against them and blew a Raspberry at him.

Oop's how about fruit?

The carrot plot was overrun with parsnips, Chip was quite perturbed, "What happened here" he demanded of Peter Parsnip.

'Well, yes' said Peter Parsnip 'that had been the original plan, but the basil has decided to go and live in Sweden' and the Dill moved into their spot, and everyone knows that carrots and Dill have the most awful fights'.

So Chip and Peter, and all the other vegetables, waited excitedly for The Yam and Prefab Sprout to take to the stage. Hours passed, but no sign of the bands.

'What's going on?' asked Chip, worriedly

'To be honest, I don't think they're going to turn-ip'........said Peter Parsnip, sagely.
