“You know, you’re really asking for trouble”, I told Davina, one quiet and dusty afternoon, “Marjorie sees you with Basil (the bastard), she’ll have you out on your ear!” “Then we’ll leave together, eh?  Little Cuz!  Once I spill the beans about us !” “There is no “US”, Davina!”, I tried to implore her. ButContinue reading “PART FIVE”

You see, Davina has become bitter and twisted over the years:  She has always aimed to be a Star, but time was running out for her. In the past, she had been a sensation on screen and stage  And worked with many of the Greats.  And was a regular starlet on all the iconic BondContinue reading “PART FOUR”

I can’t help but be rude to cousin Davina and her nit-ridden son: “Are you coming to stay, Davina?  Or are you moving in – again?”“Paul!”, Marjorie hissed.   Although there was no love lost between her cousin and herself, one must never be rude in polite society.   In fairness, Davina gave back as goodContinue reading “PART THREE”

Sadly, Running River proved to be barren.  There would be no heir to succeed the Big Chief.  Reluctant to replace his plucky young squaw, he looks on Facebook and see’s Marjorie’s announcement of her first son:  Big Chief knew the parentage of the half-paleface, and recognised his own son when he saw him.   HeContinue reading “PART TWO:”

PART ONE:  “Hand transplant went very badly, I’m afraid” “And apparently, I collapsed in front of the servants:” “Oooh!  Master Paul!”, they cried (hysterically)  “My Lavinia rang for an ambulance – eventually.”  “And I was ordered complete bed rest…”  “Marjorie’s blue eyes became misty with concern:‘Where is the Will, Paul?  You have made one, haven’tContinue reading “THE AMANDA ANN FAMILY SHOW – SERIES FIVE”

 A message from the Amanda-Anns : There are some exciting new posts by Paul and Lavinia over on paul’s passions and lav’s rants  Have a good time!!

Our hero, in the small hours of Christmas morning, is complaining:  “What a load of old shit this Christmas business is!”, he muttered.  “What with Mrs Slagg announcing our engagement to all and sundry, and that bore Madonna joining us for a real British Christmas!” Things were looking grim for the old man.  Though theContinue reading “The Amanda Ann Family Christmas Special”

Well, Melvin walked out of our lives as quickly as he walked in…  Or slumped out, rather… And Poshie has a new filly, a mature, if fading, pop cum movie star.  We’re talking about a spot on my TV show.  Well, we’ll see…. Meanwhile Lav’s moved her lesbian lover in.  Stroppy old thing.  Quite militant. Continue reading “The Amanda Ann Family Show part Seven”
