This guy saw the old phone on my camera tripod in the garden!
So he decided to make a call, but we all know that Monday's have a lethargic reputation where almost nothing works.
And Mondays are also bad days to make decisions, as it's the start of the week and very few people are in a good mood.
Besides, when you leave your office intact on a Friday, upon your return on Monday a few things seems to need a jump-start to get going again.
Here are two short stories that I hope you will enjoy.
A bit of humor is always welcome to break the gloom!
Here we can see the guy trying to lift the receiver!
He shouts; "Hey you Klutz, how am I supposed to call my mom if I can't lift the receiver"?
"Well" he said, "What are you waiting for"? "If you don't help me to make a call, I'll call the gang to soil your car" I humbly begged his pardon and told him that the phone was cut off because they didn't help with the payments! He flew off in a huff!
Now for another short story!
He said, "Are you sure that I should only click this little button on the right to take our ID photos"
"Okay" he said; "Sit down so I can take a practice shot"
The guy at the back rushes up shouting; "Wait, wait, I also want to be in the photos"!
I am totally honest here when I say that I didn't know what to expect when I fixed some old stuff from my collection onto my camera tripod. I left the tripod in the garden as I walked around to take some other shots in the gardens and upon my return there was a Loerie sitting on the tripod. So I figured that if they would sit on the tripod, then they will sit on anything.
The black phone is an oldie from days long gone by and the camera is a Kodac Instamatic that our Home Affairs used to take Identity photos, that were to be placed into our identity books.
I hope that the two little stories have brought you some delight.

Amazing pictures mate, thanks for sharing those.
Was it out of coincidence for the animal to pose with the phone?

Thank you my friend! Yes! It was pure coincidence, as I normally take about 10 shots of a bird in quick succession and sometimes the shots deliver surprise positions that I build into my random stories! My story themes vary from humor to motivation and education! We saved one of them from a cat attack and since then they are here every day! At the moment there's six of them, each with their own quirks! Blessings! @dedicatedguy
