Help create the NZLWN story - Week 1

[TonyC]

Ahh! said Mr .com. You can bank on it. Mums the word........

[ato2]

"Oh," said the witch."Do you mean that this meeting never took place? It sounds like a novel I once read."
"No, no," muttered Kim Dotcom.
He fiddled with his baseball cap for a moment, before continuing.
"You are confused, because of the strange news items on TV. Remember, we New Zealanders must stick together- that is the Key to the solution."
"But, what about my crooked broom?" asked the witch. "Will I ever recover it?"
"I think so," replied our genial giant. "There is a man called Cameron Slater who lives in a cave on the internet - he may know- people tell him many things."

[TonyC]

........ sounds all a bit complicated said the witch (which you'll remember is the young lady who is not a real witch, but someone who had been to a pre Halloween party the night before). My flatmate makes up... er, I mean, finds stories for Morning Report. I'm sure she can get Geoff to slip in a story about a missing broom which is of interest to the police.
She picks up the phone and dials......

[gabba]

....Ghostbusters. Believing that "there is something there in her neighbourhood" that may have misplaced her stick. Who else are you gonna call?

"Ghostbusters. Your fear we scare" came the voice on the phone.

"Oh, hi" said the young lady."I seemed to have lost my broom in  Mc Donald's "

"Oh yes, we have had a lot of broom vanishments in the last 24 hours. We've traced all of them so far to a single location, where the residents are....

[ato2]

...residents are highly paid and have their own protection agency."
There was a short pause and then the man continued, clearing his throat, as if he was about to impart something embarrassing.
"The only trouble is, if we get your broom back it may well have been in the hands of a politician."
"Oh no!", cried the witch.
" 'Fraid so," said the Ghostbuster's man. " And you know where that broom is likely to have been, so there would be major hygiene issues."

[TonyC]

... hygene issues? she shrieked down the phone.  You mean they cleaned the toilet with it?? or are you alluding to something oral like using it as a toothpick?
On second thoughts, maybe I don't want to know. Mr Dot Com sent me a photo which was supposed to be of a chap I spent 10 minutes on the couch with at a party. He looks vaguely familiar, but looks more like my granddad than the chap I remember, though I had had more than a few pina coladas by that stage.........

[ato2]

"Oh migod!" She shrieked.
"In the photograph-that's him- the guy in the news- Ken Black!"
"Yes," said Kim Dotcom. "I meant to tell you, but you were so worried about the crooked broom."
" Hell, that means I am the 'other woman' !"
"I guess so," muttered Kim Dotcom. "I am sorry to suggest this, but I think you should see a doctor."

[JennyLeez]

So the ‘other woman’ heads off to see her doctor.

“How may I help you “, asks the pretty blonde behind the reception counter.

“I would like to make a ‘Well Woman” appointment please”, said the ‘other woman’. “ It appears I may have misbehaved at a fancy dress party I attended last night”.

“No problem “ said the receptionist,  “It sure must have been some ‘affair’  you went to.  Please take a seat with the 4 other women over there who are also ‘in a bit of hot water at the moment’ .  We see this time and time again where members of bands abuse their ‘power and resources’ to meet their ends."

The ‘other woman’ takes a seat beside the other 4 women.........

[Deano]

And one of the women looks directly at her.
The 'other woman' decides to sit next to her, slightly away from the rest of the group and strikes up a conversation quietly.
After explaining the truly wierd events of the past 24hrs, and what her options were, the listening woman asked "You did you say Leprechauns didn't you? 
Well you know they are prone to partaking in mischief, as they have powers also"
She suggested it may have been one of them which cast the spells without you knowing, not you & your crooked stick after all.
Mmmm, thought the 'other woman', I may have to go & see if I can....

[Mark]

get "fair go"  the tv  program to help me.
Just as I was getting ready for the long wait in the waiting room the Doctor called my name out and said you must come in my room quickly as I have some....

[ato2]

...important information for you. "
The doctor motioned towards a nurse who went into the surgery with them.

[TonyC]

Haven't seen you on set before he said as he stood to let me pass through the doorway. Learning the #&@% lines is the thing I find the hardest and I confess I haven't read the script for the next scene yet so there'll be a fair bit of ad lib dialogue, hope you're up for it. However, Shortland St does pay the bills so break a leg as they say and here we go.............

[TonyC]

A voice to the side says "Take Number one, Lights, camera, ACTION!"......

[Hank13]

Meanwhile the two frogs are still waiting to be returned to their natural state, both wondering how this will all end for them...

[TonyC]

... especially as Mr frog was a policeman and Mrs Frog aka Connie was.... Mrs Frog, a real frog or Connie Francis who disappeared in the 1960's? What would happen to her when the crooked broom was waved at her?

[ato2]

At last, these and other questions are on the brink of being answered...

[TonyC]

....... but they never were as the alarm clock woke me with a jolt. Hmmm I thought. Maybe that extra tequilla with the blue cheese last night wasn't such a great idea.

(the end)?

[ato2]

Yep, here endeth the lesson!
