Fantastical Friday: Trucks and Trucklets

26th May 2017 / 7 Comments

It was a strange sight, that truck drowned in overgrown grass. At least cover it up with some dirt, man.

This was my thought process every time I walked down the street on my way to work, wondering at how lazy someone must be to half-bury a truck.

The morning I shouted “holy moly”, I was thinking the same thing passing by. Was this a millennial who had done this, what with their short attention spans?

And then I shouted, “Holy moly!”
