I hadn’t see Tackas for some months but I heard him before I saw him.
It was clear he was agitated and as he made his way to the bar I could sense a change in him.
Clancy ya young feck
Tackas!
Been a lifetime since I laid eyes on ya what the feck have ya been up to?
Oh just hanging about. You?
Oh Clancy me dear friend I’m bin up to a lot I can tell ya. Do you want the good news or the feckin’ bad news?
You have both?
I do and I’m feckin’ dying to tell ya both.
Well the good news first.
The good news is there’s no bad news. And I’m in love.
Really?
Yes and don’t be lookin’ so feckin’ surprised now.
I am Tackas but I’m happy for ya. What’s her name and tell me all about her.
Well her name is Jakelynn. She’s a palliative care nurse and as light and breezy as a blue wren I can be tellin’ ya.
You mean her names Jacquelyn.
No ya dumb feck, its Jakelynn.
That’s a weird name you sure you got it right?
Course I got the feck right, it’s not her fault that’s her name now is it?
I guess not.
Anyway I call her Jake saves a lot of bother. Now what was I saying oh yes now ya see she’s jus the most supernal girl I’ve ever met, I’ve been floating around like in ecstasy for weeks now.
Supernal?
Supernal. Heavenly like an angel. Clancy sometimes you disappoint me, your as thick as all feck, everyone knows supernal.
Never heard of it.
You know Clancy if ya stuck with the wordle’s you’d know a feck more than you do now, as it is ya know feck all.
Into the wordle’s again?
I am I loves a good wordle, I can feel it warming me feckin’ blood when I looks at ‘em twelve words.
Yeah ok, we’ve had this conversation before, so how did the two of you meet?
Well that’s the ting Clancy, tis a perplexing ting you know. You aren’t gonna believe it when I tells ya but I was out at the lake and I was wandering along watching where I was stepping cause there’s a lot of that slippery moss along the waters edge, when I hears the scream, and I looks over and its herself, neck deep in the water, as she’d slipped on the moss and now was suffering a right old drenching. So I fished her out and helped her dry out I did.
You helped her dry out? That’s very chivalrous of you.
It was and I’ll spare ya the feckin’ graphic details for I know ya a sensitive artistic type are you not? So only to say we got a long well, so well she’s coming to stay for the weekend.
That’s wonderful Tackas. I hope you have a great weekend.
So the feck do I she owes me the hundred dollars it cost me to buy her dry clothes.

This is hilarious Michael! I was happy to see Tackas and that conversation about the Wordles just cracked me up!
The wordle Yves is my way into a new word each week. And it’s always a lot of fun. I haven’t given Tackas an outing for some time and he is a fun guy to write about.
He is fun to read about as well and I am happy you are learning some words along the way
One is never too old to learn Yves. Have a good day.
This was something very different! But it made me smile, and I loved the conversation! Inspired, if you ask me! *smile*
Thanks CC. Tackas is one of the characters I have written about on my blog, he is a fun character to write about.
I haven’t had a chance to go back and read any of your old stuff yet (sorry), but I will and I am looking forward to getting to know Tackas better!
He has a mind and language all of his own.
Welcome back Tackas lol been away a bit and you’re in love with Jake? Holy cow you have been busy, great dialogue, another humorous fine piece.
Thanks Jenny just when we thought Tackas was a confirmed bachelor.
Well us Sheila’s can change a mans way of thinking…. 😉
So nice to hear about Tackas. I was wondering about him.
I enjoy the combo of his rough exterior & a sensitive & humorous sides too.
I’m looking forward to see how this relationship pans out.
Thanks RoSy he may have started something by mentioning it. I think we are all curious now.
Happy to see Tackas again and his wonderful news! hope we’ll be seein more of him in the future!
Thanks Georgia I’ll have to see if he can tear himself away from his girlfriend. Maybe a post from about her do you think?
Oh that would be a delight! I can just imagine the “feckin” story! You’ve always got a winner with Tackas … so humerous and human…
hahahaha…he is a character isn’t he..I’ll see what he says.
Thanks so very much for the good word to him! 😉
Thank you Georgia it may happen I just never know what the feck he might do next.
Lol…don’t we know it, which is part of his charm!
Tackas! I missed the old goat! Glad he’s back. I really enjoyed this. 🙂
Thanks Jen he’s been away, but he said ‘I’m back, give me a go.’ Thanks so much for reading and remembering my mate. I won’t mention the ‘old’ bit as he is younger than me!
No, let’s not tell Tackas I said that … he’d be feckin’ cheesed off! 😉
He’s quite hard to forget!
In a big feckin’ way Jen and I’d be pointing the finger at YOU! Have a good evening.
I would NOT want to mess with Tackas, LOL!
Ahh don’t worry Jen, he’s all talk.
You’re probably right … ! Still …..
I like Tackas, a bit rough around the edges, but a good heart I think. I went back and read when Tackas first showed up lol….I liked it. Good character Michael.
Thank you Jackie he has a girlfriend now so he may reveal more as time goes on. Thanks for your comment I appreciate you.
Well it’s always good to be appreciated 😉
I think so.
oh my goodness…that was hilarious. I love the whole discussion of the wordle and supernal. Great stuff!
Thank you Melanie, my friend Tackas is an interesting character. I appreciate your comment.
