A Doctor’s Story by Paul Howlett




A Doctor’s Story    by Paul Howlett

In Queensland, solar panels are all the go, and our local doctor and her husband had applied to see if they could get solar panels on the roof of their house.

The tradesman from the Solar Panel Company turned up and was to meet the husband on site at an appointed time… The husband was late.

Our doctor showed the Solar Panel Consultant around the house and showed him all the roof lines and had a general walkabout on their property.

Husband turned up some ten or so minutes late and profusely apologised for being late.

“No trouble,” replied the Solar Panel Tradesman, “Your daughter has just shown me all over the property”.

When our doctor finally went out to see her husband, he was in a very grumpy mood, as both he and his wife are in the same age bracket.

But it she made her day… she has been telling this story to one and all.

It’s great for the female ego, when a stranger knocks off a great chunk of their real age!!

Peek a Boo Skull


A little spooky, and a little humor... 

I tried out some new acrylic (background) paint, so I added a curious peeping skull to liven up the subject.

Midnight Phone Call



Midnight Phone Call   

 by Paul Howlett

Phone rings late late at night

One wakes in a stage of fright

Who is calling what can it be?

Late night phone calls are not for me

They usually bring bad news

Nothing of cheer

 Sounds in the dark

Making me fear

Foretelling of bad tidings

Nothing of joy

Let the night phone calls 

Be gone for this Year!
