‘What fun,’ grinned one of the boys.
‘Yes indeed,’ said the other one, ‘especially since we hopped on a bus, then we got out by this river in the Norfolk Broads.’
‘We have brought some sandwiches and we are wearing our wellies.’
‘And we have some fishing tackle, and we might even catch a couple of fishes.’
The two boys walked purposely.
‘It’s a bit deep by those reeds, and that’s going to be rather tricky,’ as one of them remarked.
But a moment later they heard an interesting sound.
‘Ooh, it’s a chug-chug-chug noise, and it’s getting closer.’
And very soon a cabin cruiser appeared.
‘Do you want to hop over here on the next bend?’ shouted an old guy on the boat. ‘I’m sure both of you will enjoy this.’
And so they did.
The two boys didn’t manage to catch a fish, but it was still fun.

I suppose my younger daughter has a boat (she’s on her college rowing team), but it looks a little different. 🙂

That was a fun and lovely flash fiction story. It reminded me of me and my brother’s adventures by the river where we lived during the summers in northern Sweden.

That was a good short story, and it’s certainly a bit strange, Matthew. Also I saw a new word – ‘cruisie’ – just a quick google for that!
