    It's been 9 months since the last bookstore drabble and I've been writing them down in a little book all that time until I got enough to make another one.

    Two things - I don't know if you have Allen wrenches over there but it's a thing over here in the USA. Also, here if someone is going to get drunk they say they're going to "tie one on." I'm not sure if that saying is across the pond either.

    Never heard the expression Tie one on Christopher. Will probably drop it into a conversation now. Thanks for the giggle.

    You're welcome. They're not sure of the origin but think it comes from back when people had to tie their horses up outside of a saloon or a tavern to go in and drink.

    I’d not heard of that one either, Christopher, but your explanation does sound plausible.

    I enjoy these! Have you already published in an earlier Bookstore Too Long in the Saddle, by Major Bumsore?
