Scribe’s Cave Picture Prompt #42 – The Wayward Wife

83858348

Harry sat forlornly in the doctor’s surgery. His tale of woe he had unloaded to the good doctor. Harry’s Janice was a wayward wife. What could he do?

The doctor produced a bottle of his remedy for wayward wives.

‘It will settle her down, calm her rages, inspire her to cook like never before, she’ll be compliant and ever so loving,’ the doctor stated.

‘It’s the ironing,’ said Harry. ‘She refuses to starch and iron my shirts.’

‘No need to worry any further, a few spoonful’s of my remedy and she’ll be a better wife than you ever thought.’

Harry took the bottle home and that night he slipped a spoonful into his wife’s late night coffee, the same the next morning.

A week later Harry reappeared at the doctors surgery, wearing a beautifully ironed and starched shirt, though walking extremely gingerly.

On examination the doctor could make out the end of the bottle protruding from Harry’s rear end with the small note attached:

‘Works well.’ Love Janice.
