Fanny pushed opened his front door immediately. He had put his keys in the door latch, and had been gasping when trying to open the door as it appeared jammed. He seemed very tired to have been around town not really achieving anything. It had been like that for a period of time and for starters he was an unemployed man who was told that he did not have any prospects by people, but he never really did listen to them, them in this case his protagonists, because Fanny had what i would call an extra confidence in himself a sort of try and let me see attitude .Fanny had just come back from one of his" wild goods chases" and was lucky to have escaped another day of failures with an invitation to come back to see if his pictures, his past time passion had been sold
Fanny born Fanny Logan was originally born in the eastern part of Skips town and he had moved down to Norea because he felt he would be strangled if he had lived in Skipstown. For starters, he had no qualifications and Skips town was a very suburban town where everybody tried to live well or lived high profile with a lot of future prospects. One of the donts was not to reveal anything about yourself as the average person you met was very ambitious take the case of "Merrido" he used to say that it was "jewel land" he only followed his friend Garth down to Busters mansion for a party and see what happened to him he got framed for something he did not do" unintentionlal assault" . Skips town was not always like that if you had the acceptable waddy lifestyle doors opened and it was this doors that brought him to Norea .
Cindy pressed her telephone buzzer in her hand and her phone rang, hi is that you cindy the voice said ,yes its me whose speaking cindy replied, its Alligator here he said there is a new guy in town he is called Fanny Logan and i want you to check him out for me. All right where does he live she muttered 1101 Rices lane thats fine Cindy said and dropped the phone.Cindy was a member of the local megrebe group and she was based in Norea permanently but there are lots of times when she had done raids with other mates of hers to other nearby villages and towns checking out people. There was always Suly , Martha, Julie,and Jam and it was quite a relaxing job at times. If they had good luck they could make a killing for themselves some of them even developed and had careers of their own but the ones that did not behave, got themselves involved in burglaries , robberies, petty thefts, gang rapes and had their lives ruined. She got up from her sofa chair and took the keys of her car she then went out of the door of her house , locked the door and climbed into her old ford sedan and headed for the highway. After about ten minutes of driving she came to number 1101 Rices lane she parked the old ford sedan into the parking lot and climbed out of her car and rang the buzzer of her door.
Fanny opened the door and immediately he saw her he said what can i do for you miss, are you Fanny she said yes Fanny replied "em" she said i am the lady that lives down the road and i saw you by the roadside and thought i should get to know you better come on in he said as they walked into the lounge together and sat down. I am an unemployed man he said looking for work and i came down form Skips Town. Work cindy said suprised i thought you were a buisnesman from skips town yes sort of he replied, i am an artist i paint and sell pictures but i do not always have work. At times i might not find work and i have to make do with my meagre earnings. Allright she said would you like to come to the restaurant with me she said, yes Fanny said and pulled his jacket from the top of the chair they both went outside of the house and went into Cindys car with Cindy at the steering wheel.After about 20 minutes of driving they came to the Turning Wheel Fox which was a bar restaurant where the locals used to have a quick drink and fix dates as to when they would like to meet next. Cindy was quite popularly known around here Fanny thought for a moment. They went in and there was Jam at the door meet Jam, Cindy said to Fanny he works as a reporter down the road at the local community magazine. The lady down the other end of the restaurant starring in front of us is Meg we used to get" high" together she said. Do you smoke she asked Fanny. Fanny said no i dont Cindy laughed in this town everybody smokes she said and everybody drinks .
Fanny did not spend very long that night and after about four hours or so he was escorted home by Cindy and Jam they striked up a good friendship for a period of time and after a period of time in Norea tongues began to waggle as Fanny had no job and his paintings were not selling well. His friends Cindy and Jam had abandoned him and he really was nowhere it was at this juncture he made up his mind to leave Norea after an invitation from a man called Hossy to come and work for him in Fairlands. He spoke to the lad next door about it who agreed .Golmate as he was called liked pets he seemed to have a lot of pets but this night was no exception he had to warn Fanny that the "taboo of the town" was that they did not like visitors to the town who had lived here without any big progress to leave the town without a challenge if he could not do it tonight he thought he would do it tommorrow night he pressed on the phone but there was no answer.
Fanny was a bit drunk tonight it was his last night in Norea and he had been out for a drink and was almost near home. He was singing "for he is a jolly good fellow" he sang as he took his keys out of his pocket, took it out and put it in the latch of the front door and turned up the latch to go in when all of a sudden there was a large blast and Fanny fell to the ground the police and ambulance service came a few minutes later and he was padded up and rushed to the hospital.Wake up Mr Logan the nurse said you were very lucky it was just a few fractures on your legs and hands you are free to go .
Bus 96 was the next bus on the queue Fairlands next the attendant said where are your tickets she said. Fanny put his hands in his pockets brought out his ticket and handed them to the attendant who tore a bit of the ticket and gave the rest back to Fanny he then climbed into the bus and sat in the middle row he put his hand to his head and smiled to the next person seated beside him thank god he exclaimed it was Hell on Earth
