Wallanstide's Magristrates courts never fails to put on the entertainment for the local news journal cult Dougie sais to himself as he's turning into the permits only entrance behind the building that visits his past more then he does. Slowing down to allow a group of story telling bullshit dealers he spots Wilma ahead. Winding his window down whilst pulling up next to her with a Douglas smirk he sais " what's the colour of a two cent piece " Wilma shakes her head whilst bursting out one her " Douglas! "
Dougie leans over the leather bench seat to open the door for Wilma. laughing he goes
" Frank's paying a good dollar for the lot you lie for at the moment" " wonder how much I'd get for you babe" haha .....
Thirty years two months and three day since the day of Doug & wills special day. " Douglas I have booked the golf course out for a blokes only game for Saturday morning" sais Wilma whilst staring out her window at the journal cult. Dougies never even stepped foot on golf course. " The boys were talking of taking the tinnys down the river when the weather warms up darling plus I'm on canteen duty down the club saty morning" Dougie replies....
pointing over towards the journal cult Wilma turns her head and sais " that lot don't get permits to watch us suspend drivers licences pr hand out a false DVO"
" YOU ARE PLAYING GOLF ON SATURDAY DOUGLAS"
Not another word was said until young Jimmy come running out onto the stage to play his part in the school concert. The audience was filled with laughter,cheering " get em Jimmy " one of the school dads yells from the back of the town hall followed by some good clapping. Dougie leans towards Willma and sais " Did he look at you" Willma nods her head whilst holding back that lump in the back of her throat, facial expression stuck in between proper fear and confusion. Doug & wills had never been happier seeing the back of everyones heads and the tail lights of everyone's cars.
knowing this moment in time was coming along sooner or later but thirty or so Years later ment that things were about to get interesting. " Do you Want to park the car and call the dogs in whilst I see what goodies the postie has left for us and bring those bloody bins in will"
" yeah I'll leave the garage door open " willma replies as she's sliding over to the driver's side. Wilma yells out from some distance " DOUG MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO SHUT THE GATE TONIGHT"
"YES DARL" Dougie yells back down the dark driveway, taillights slowly getting further, the sound of the well kept stoned driveway is like music to anyone's ears that knows that sound. dougie collects a few envelopes, picks up one bin to put inside the other, makes his way towards the house....
" I'll shut the gate for ya dougie!"
Dougie stops, let's go of the bin before he turns around slowly to see who just said that.......
" I never had an issue with you Doug, It's her I'll be paying a visit" Dougie hears along with the sound of the chain wrapping around the gate!...
" having a BBQ with the family here on saty arvo, you should join us! come meet everyone" sais Dougie in a keep the peace but f**k you voice whilst grabbing the bin and making his way up to the house..
Dougs sais to himself under his breath " ya fucken kidding me aren't ya " then gives out a Lil angry grunt.
Friday Morning rolls around like it did and will continue to do so every other week. If you haven't guessed already that Dougs not one to say or do anything that'd upset willma, he'd happily do some time for a crime if it ment that Wilma and the family for happy and in this family the women know better then to dig into the man's business and vice versa! some would call this Mafia law.
Here in wallanstide there's a few unwritten laws that have kept this town from falling apart........
