FLYING FISH & COU COU: More trouble on the horizon

IT JUST SEEMS nothing is going right for a select group of late. And just when they thought nothing else could go wrong, one of their own has turned on them in a major way.
Though not in the top echelons of that team, this angry person gained notoriety after their talented performance during a major event less than a year ago. In fact, some pundits have argued, it was that person’s Academy Award-type acting that sealed the deal for the team.
But that was then when promises flowed and assurances were given that there was a public enemy at the gate who had to be sent packing again.
Today, the said actor is questioning why their sibling was one of the 1 800 axed.
The individual wants to know how come their family, of all people, was one touched after the critical work done for the team to turn the tide.
So upset is this person that they have been defying their real age and the one they portrayed, as they swiftly make the rounds between the various politicos trying to see them to demand that their loved one be reinstated.
The individual mapped out their route so efficiently that if they needed to use a Transport Board bus, they would have been able to get around to where the politicos are usually stationed without a problem.
Unfortunately, the person has found, like the rest of us, that no one with authority seems to be listening to anything.
 
Money missing
AUTHORITIES AT A place known for controversy have called in the police to help locate thousands of dollars which seem to be missing.
So on Wednesday the crime sleuths came in, set up in the conference room in the institution and individually questioned the workers in the accounts department of the establishment.
The bosses at the place have been tight-lipped about what is going on, but Cou Cou understands that given the money squeeze at the entity, if any genuine wrongdoing is discovered the person or persons involved will have to repay every cent with interest too, or book a room at Dodds inn.
 
Constituents blue
CONSTITUENTS IN A rural parish want to know why their parliamentary representative has failed to carry on the excellent social work the previous representative had started in an effort to bring families together.
People have being saying that it is a shame that fetes are being allowed on the spot earmarked to promote such family activities.
The angry constituents want to know how these fetes can be deemed wholesome when the loud music disturbs the entire neighbourhood and the MCs can be heard on microphones using extreme language.
Some residents are planning to petition the representative so that they will understand that fetes do not come first.
 
Angry parents
PARENTS WHOSE children attend a rural primary school are angry over the way a substitute teacher has been preparing their children for the 11-Plus exam, which is just around the corner.
For the past few weeks, the children have not been given any homework, and art is the main subject they are being taught in the classroom.
Some concerned parents apparently confronted the principal about this situation and allowed her to know that art was not in the Common Entrance Exam, and they were afraid that their children were all going to fail.
The principal apparently told them that the teacher was a teacher who was just running out the clock until it is their time to go home.
This explanation, of course, did not go down well with parents.
