Mrs Brown And Mrs Darling

MRS BROWN AND MRS DARLING by Mikey J

INT. IKEA. DAY.

MRS DARLING:
Morning, Mrs Brown.

MRS BROWN:
Morning, Mrs Darling.

MRS DARLING:
What brings you to IKEA?

MRS BROWN:
It’s my bloody husband. He's getting so lazy these days. He kept promising to change that item of furniture that fell apart as soon as we got it home, but he never did.

MRS DARLING:
Well, like Alistair says, Gordon’s got so many empty promises of changing the cabinet.

MRS BROWN:
Oh, that reminds me. You’ll never guess what Gordon said this morning.

MRS DARLING:
Go on. What?

MRS BROWN:
He said he wanted a reshuffle. So I said dirty bastard! If you want to do a mucky thing like that, go to the bathroom.

END.

It's a good idea but I think if I was you I'd redo the intro.

Maybe set it in Ikea?

Good sketch though.

Yeah. Like this perhaps:

INT. IKEA. DAY.

MRS DARLING:

MRS BROWN:
Morning, Mrs Darling. My bloody husband. He's getting so lazy these days. He kept promising to change that item of furniture, but he never did, so I've had to come here myself.

MRS DARLING:
Well, like Alistair says, Gordon's got so many empty promises of changing the cabinet.

Like it.

Especially if you got in a jab about the cheapness of IKEA cabinets and how quickly they fall apart.

MRS BROWN:

Good stuff.

Sorted.

I'll now EDIT my original post, so that these last few posts won't make any sense now.

Like the cabinet pun Mikey. Good stuff again.

Thanks Tommy.

Right, I'd better get on with some work.
Working on a film screenplay at the moment. It won't write itself.
Trouble is, these boards do get rather addictive.

Ohh IKEA cabinet joke! Nice

If you don't mind, I might suggest an ending on the cabinet theme:

He said he wanted a reshuffle. So I said dirty bastard! If you want to do a mucky thing like that, buy a commode instead.

Or maybe she's in IKEA to buy a new cabinet & commode.

Eh, what nonsense am I saying?

It was sootyj who advised it being set in IKEA.

Originally, it was set in the back gardens of No.10 and 11; you know, the two women in housewife mode, gossiping over the fence.

I might be thinking of making Mrs Brown and Mrs Darling a running series of sketches.
