Title: Home Sweet Home
Characters: Claudia
Rating: PG

Prompt: 102, Home Sweet Home

Disclaimer: I don’t own Claudia, Impossible Pictures do.Please don't sue.
Summary: Claudia has a spot of bother with her front door.

 

 

    

 

        “Home, sweet home,” Claudia murmured, unlocking the door.

 

It stuck.

 

            “Bloody door.” She shoved it, and the door burst open and hit the wall with a bang; Claudia fell over.

 

“Ouch. Bloody, bloody door.” She picked herself up, and slammed the door shut; it had marked the blue paint. Claudia just sighed.

 

It was times like these that Claudia really wanted her parents; her father’s encyclopaediac knowledge of DIY and her mother’s endless cups of tea and comfort. Or possibly, she reflected, she just needed a Yellow Pages- surely there was someone in London who could fix that bloody door?

Poor Claudia! *Winces in sympathy*

LOL... I see Claudia's DIY skills are as useful useless as mine.

*snorts* poor Claudia.. love the bit about her parents or the yellow pages!

Aw, poor Claudia.

*sporfles* Oh dear, poor Claudia...

I sympathise; we have two :-) doors in our house which need battering rams to open them. But what a perfect excuse for Claudia to ring Nick up and ask him if he knows any DIY!

I feel for her too- our front door sticks badly. I can't get it open at the best of times, but now... >< Thanks for the comment!

Only strange people can fix a door which sticks without resorting to the Yellow Pages. *serious nod* Thanks for the comment!

LOL! Poor Claudia. Quick, someone send for Nick. He may not be able to fix the door, but at least he'll make her feel better.

[rain-sleet-snow.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

[rain-sleet-snow.livejournal.com]

Yeah- doors that stick are horrible. Thanks for the comment!

[rain-sleet-snow.livejournal.com]

Not a nice way to end the day, is it? ^^ Thanks for the comment.

Our front door, as well as having enough locks to out-security Fort Knox, sticks badly, so I know exactly how Claudia feels. >< And hee, I was thinking Ryan, actually! ;) I suspect Nick would be worse than useless at DIY.

[rain-sleet-snow.livejournal.com]

*g* I was thinking Ryan- he might actually know how to fix the door as well as make her feel better. ;)

[reggietate.livejournal.com]

Probably, but then she could kiss him better when he smacked his thumb with a hammer :-)

[fredbassett]

LOL, I know how she feels!

[rain-sleet-snow.livejournal.com]

True- then he'd probably do it again on purpose or something. :p

[rain-sleet-snow.livejournal.com]

*g* I think we all do!

Aw! You're never too old to need your mum and dad. This was nice, but poor Claudia! *hugs her*
