Dinner time (Friday Fictioneers)
“Is that a tunnel beneath the table?”
“Sure not. It’s probably just decoration or a part of the charm of the restaurant.”
“Well, I reckon it is a tunnel, maybe a prohibition tunnel for smuggling bootlegged whiskey.”
“No whiskey for you.”
“Aw.”
“Do they look happy out there?”
“Yes sir. Eating well and completely distracted.”
“Excellent. Lock the doors, raise the gates and let the giant killer worms through for their feed.”
“Do we have to? It’s such a pain to replace the glass every day.”
“You want to be their food instead?”
“Ah, no sir.”
“Get on with it.”

Dear Laurie,
Ooh. A grisly end to that dinner. Unless of course, you’re a flesh eating worm. Guess who’s coming to dinner?
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thank you! Hahaha oh yes the giant worm wins this one!
The animals in the house must be fed, broken glass or not, I totally agree. I wonder what they do with the giant killer worms though, keep them as pets? Great fun!
Oooo perhaps the giant worms own the restaurant ? LOL they might be the smart ones here haha
Farming giant killer worms is clearly not for the faint-hearted!
Oh indeed Neil!
Like Dune, but more civilised 😀
Hahaha yes indeed!
No whiskey for you. Fun one, Laurie.
Can you imagine… and given the ending I think they could have done with a whiskey first !
I agree.
Oy.
😊
My goodness, can’t he get normal pets. What if these creatures escape into the wider world, there will be trouble ahead. Loved the horror element.
Oh yes! But who owns who is my question 👀
No whiskey… coz they don’t want the worms getting inebriated while they eat!!
Hahaha priorities, am I right?
I think I’d be drinking all the whiskey
You be right!! 😉
The dragons on Saturn wonder how these worms taste.
Hahaha… I wonder what it’s tastes like?
Creative use of the mystery photo. Hoping they are free of the reign of the worm someday.
Thank you! We all end up as worm food eventually
You’re welcome 🙂
Ohhhh flesh-eating worms…what a great idea! They should get a complimentary whisky before the ‘floor show’. A bottomless glass of it. Great story!
Thank you!!
OMG I just realised I should have made it tequila not whiskey! Hahsha 🤣🤣🤣
