Very chilling, Diane. How about:-

Sorry for the multiple posts below! I really did only mean to post once!
I had trouble staying logged in earlier on so assumed what I had sent had not got through. I guess it goes to show I shouldn’t assume anything!
On the plus side, I swear I’ve not been on anything stronger than tea today, otherwise goodness knows how many posts I’d have sent!
Kind regards to all.

Hi Diane.
Nice going!! You carried the topic to another direction…and that’s a very good six word story! So, with the airplane theme, I offer:
“Regretfully, this is your pilot speaking.”
With my original, ‘The Breakup,’ theme I should have been more specific. For kicks, try the theme: ‘Breaking off a Romance.’
Here’s one. “I think we need to talk.” (My original, “Honey, it’s not you, it’s me.”— in the USA that’s already a cliche.)
