Thank you to Sonya O., with Only 100 Words, for providing our photo prompt this week.
After forty years of trying George and his won the lottery for two-hundred million dollars. With the time-warn phrase rattling in their heads – a fool and his money are soon parted – George and his wife set sail for England to see how soon that would be.
They leased an ancient castle for a lengthy time After hearing music, and searching stem to stern, they found Old King Cole and his fiddlers three belting a tune. So all six went to the parlor for song and dance, and a spot of tea.

Cute story! Liked the twist you took with the prompt. I came searching for your post written for FFfAW and thought I would try and figure out how to link it up for you to the Inlinkz grid. I think this is how you do it:
http://n7net.me/2015/08/11/where-old-king-cole-hangs/
If I don’t come back and comment on this post again, then that url worked, if not, I will come back and let you know.

Well, I tried using that url and a url using scottsplace, but neither of them were correct. Sorry, I am not able to help you link this to the grid

If you know what your url is and give that to me, I will be happy to link you up in the InLinkz grid so everyone can read your story. I personally couldn’t figure out what your wordpress blog address is.

I URL you tried earlier, I think, is one of those you mentioned earlier, and the one I use to gain access to my blog from any computer or iPad is: http://n7net.me.
However, I go back to where I set up this account to be certain we’re both talking the same thing.
http://n7net.me/2015/08/11/2513/ is what I use to ping back. This was for the King Cole story. Does that help?

It must be great fun to see how quickly you can spend two-hundred million dollars! Fun story. 🙂 In the opening line ‘George and his’ what ‘won the lottery’? I’m assuming the word ‘wife’ should be in there. 🙂

Yes, wife should have been there. Typos is what got me thrown out of typing class, and told to never return.
