A TRIUMPHANT RETURN

Do forgive my absence maudlin friends, I have been on safari to the darkest, shadows of the Maudlin mansion and have only just found my way back. Ahhhh, but what treasures I brandish, truly worth the wait…….


The Maudlin Princess woke with a stretch and a yawn. “What a remarkable slumber” she exclaimed, “I feel as though I have been at rest in the arms of Morpheus a hundred years!”She looked about her with a mix of curiosity and disgust “what on earth are those hideous rags you’re wearing?” She said glaring at their pastel colors and thin leather neck ties and the shamefully short skirts of her female attendants and then looked with relief at her own gown of full skirt and velvet bodice.
“Actually you’ve been asleep for ages.” ventured one of the men.
“Yeah, and we’ re stoked that this bloke came along and woke you up with a kiss.” cried one of the ladies, Pushing a pimply faced youth toward the stunned Princess.
At once the Maudlin Princess burst into tears – not only was her rescuer quite the most skinny, pimply, unattractive prince she had ever laid eyes on, but she had woken up in the 80’s.
