THE DIAL – A – RIDE TURNS UP

One day in Flat 11.8 Bernard Gatepost was in the toilet when all of a sudden the intercom went off, announcing:
“Dial – a – Ride!”
The resident wasn’t even ready, only half – way through, and what a commotion he raised, bawling at the top of his voice. His stoma bag was half- full when he had to get dressed and rushed like anything and gave his flat door such a bang that it fell off its hinges. A tenant in the next flat shouted:
“Madman, why don’t get sent away, this flat’s for decent people not maddies like you.”
The man rushed down to Dial – a – Ride and sat with Dan Desperate, another tenant in Goodboys Lodge.
Meanwhile, upstairs the other tenant got his own back on the screamer by chucking a cup down at him from Flat 12
“Take that mad scum and hop it, I don’t want to see you here ever again you’ve caused just about enough trouble. The Dial – a – Ride driver seeing what happened reported the hateful tenant to the scheme manager and she got her removed from Goodboys Lodge the same day for chucking a cup at a disturbed resident.
The door that was wrenched from its hinges by banging it in a temper got repaired.
The tenant, Bernard gatepost, attended Boxtop Day Centre in Clarence Avenue, Gants Hill.
At 3.99 pm Dial – a – Ride turned up. It was now time to go home, but on the way in Scrambrook Road Dial – a – Ride got delayed because a big monster was blocking up the road. Police were trying to coax the dragon off the road but it just wouldn’t budge so they tranquilised it and used a crane to hoist it up onto a lorry. The lorry took it to a dragon zoo and put it into a compound surrounded by a fence made up of lions to prevent it from escaping.
The Dial – a – Ride returned the tenant to Goodboys Lodge and he saw that his flat door was now safely back on. The support worker Daffodil Imbert saw him back safely.
