The case rests.

Nice title

I tried to write one. But I couldn't get a handle on it.

You'd have just packed it with pants and wheeled it out again

And when your imagination takes flight it just goes over our heads

Well the first part is right :)

I made my girlfriend a marble cake for her birthday.

She was really enjoying it until she nearly choked on one of them.

I wrote a play about suitcases.

It's somewhere in Heathrow Terminal Five.

Went to a networking event for opticians. Came away with a couple of new contacts.

Just seen a news report about raisins cheating on each other.
I like to keep up on current affairs.

I agree. My only advice would be to take out the "nearly" - it's funnier if she's actually turning blue. Whistling nnocently

I prefer the cadence if you keep the the nearly in... Or write a pause. An ellipsis ... Or some such.

Both are good. Perfect for a preferably sober crowd.
