CCC160: The Back Lane to Hell

“Hey, watchyer doing, moving that sign?” Brock was only a little chap, but he wasn’t afraid to stand up to the big-uns.

“What’s it to you. I’m moving it, yea,” the big-un said.

“But-but-but-but…”

“Yea?”

“How’s people to know where they’re going?”

“Who needs to know?”

“Peoples who’s using this path.”

“And where’s the path lead?”

“Well-well-well, down yonder.”

“And nowhere other?” asked the big-un, a rag taken out to polish his horns.

“Not as I know.”

“Then they don’t need a sign, do they. No, I’m taking this to where it’ll be better used.”

“Where’s that…if you don’t mind me asking?” asked little Brock.

“Down the back lane to hell.”

    I say the big-un can take his sign. I would like to know if that were the path I were taking 😉
