“On March 9th, 2015, three objects were reportedly seen in the skies over the Borracho Todos los Tiempos Vineyards.”
Angelo had visited five vineyards where the rioja flowed freely.
He ran as fast as he could along the Rue de Tropicana, shouting. “Invasion, the aliens are here! I will save the world!” Firing a pistol wildly into the sky, as passers by ducked for cover.
“Can you see the saucers in the sky we are under attack!”
Angelo was arrested for being drunk and disorderly, he awoke in a Parisian cell in a drunken stupor, memory began to return as he thought he had been abducted and the Gendarmes were aliens.
Marg arrived with a high powered solicitor and bailed him out. The Brigadier was livid and then keen to get the operation moving to flush the villainous Dickus out of his gambling emporium.

I reckon they should have left Angelo in the cell for a while. He might muck up the operation!
True Ali ~Although I’m reliably informed Angelo does posess certain critical skills ~ 🙂
Good one…poor Angelo:)
Thanks Shivangi ~ Glad you enjoyed this 🙂
That Angelo! What was he thinking? 🙂 Loved the continuation John! Got me thinking with your last line, what I can work into the challenge for next week! Thanks for participating and be well… ^..^
Many thanks Babs ~ Another inspired prompt ~ I enjoyed looking up the original Spanish translation on the wonderful Google translate ~ Very interesting tie to the picture ~ I’m glad you enoyed this 🙂
Had to have some fun with the name of a vineyard! 🙂 I am happy that you take part in the challenge! 🙂
A little hiccough in an otherwise smooth operation. Angelo evidently can’t hold his liquor, as they say. Another good episode, John. 🙂
Thanks Millie ~ Angelo is a wild card ~ Obviously suffers powerful hallucinations and exhibits wild reactions under the influence of alcohol ~ Clearly psychotic, hence he works for a dodgy financial organisation. Thanks again for your great comment.
You’re welcome, John. I enjoyed reading it. 🙂
John – your breaking plate glass window is in the upcoming Mondays post! 🙂 Thanks for you line and the idea that it gave me! 🙂
That sounds very interesting Babs ~ Thanks ~ I look forward to Mondays enormously these days 🙂
My teaser to you for the upcoming challenge John is “A body suddenly crashed through a plate glass window at the Brigadier’s house.” Now do not share that! 🙂
I can hardly wait for the continuation… 🙂
Thanks Joy ~ I hope you are not disappointed ~ I am enjoying responding to your new Flash Fiction challenge 🙂
As well as you write John, I won’t be disappointed. 🙂 I’m glad you are enjoying the prompts. 😀 I hope you will keep participating in them.
Good continuation, John. I look forward to next week’s installation. 🙂
Totally believable John. I think the same fate would find me if I started firing guns in the main street.
