Brevity by Dan Thompson for February 18, 2017

For a 1,000 pounds he could probably buy a taxi cab.

It’s a cabnapping.

Ah… a good old-fashioned crime drama….

Of course, it’s probably some hackneyed premise….

You know… the sulky daughter has run off with the hansom chauffeur,

they find her living in a buggy apartment and working as a taxi dancer….

but there’s sometimes an intriguing trap for the criminals….

and some exciting chaise scenes.

When they took the horse it was a de-livery.

I’m sorry the surrey was taken from Surrey.

What a night-mare.

They’ll have to pony up a lot of cash.

Quit horsing around.

That sounds like the kind of thing that should be put on the stage…coach!

@SusanSunshineWonder if there were any fringe benefits being a taxi dancer!
