The report of my death was an exaggeration



"I'm not dead, I've just been resting."

"You do look a bit pale though. Are you sure you're not dead?"

"Sometimes you've got a take a bit of a rest, even from things you enjoy."

"Like breathing?"

"What?"

"You're not breathing."

"I am. It's very shallow. I told you I was resting."

"Also, what's that smell?"

"What smell?"

"That smell!"

"My new aftershave. It was a present. Do you like it?"

"No, no. Not really."

"Cold Corpse, it's called. I'm told it's very popular."

"Who amougst?"

"Mortuary workers, Undertakers, Grave diggers and some forensic scientists. However only those forensic scientists not cool and good looking enough to appear in Silent Witness or Bones."

"OK, I'll catch you around."

"Good plan. We must have a curry. Anyway before you go, could you do something for me?"

"Sure."

"Could you close the lid? Ta. I need a lie-in."

  1. Hmmm. Does this mean you were visited by the Grim Procrastinator?

  2. Cold Corpse cologne, eh?

    Sounds like something one of my zombies would like.

    And I'm glad you're not dead.

  5. So THAT's where you've been hiding! I thought it was starting to smell a little musty around here.
