Mundane Imaginings
I use some of my imagination for those things normally considered the realm of imagination - fantastic or outlandish notions and concepts. But I also spend much of my musings on imaginary variations on some rather everyday subject matter.
One I have pondered lately is what things would happen in the course of a week at a pub if that pub was the only one in a small town. Here is what I envisage.
Sundays Lunchtime - Piano Bar -
a local pianist plays while guests dine
Monday Evenings - Darts Competition
Tuesday Evenings - Pool & Snooker Night
Wednesday Evenings - Poker Night
Thursday Evenings - Trivia Quiz
Friday Evenings - Local three member band plays
covers and originals - everything from John Lee Hooker
to Red Hot Chili Peppers
Saturday Lunchtime - Toastmasters - locals come to practice speech-making on whatever topics interest them
Saturday Evenings - Local DJs play pop and dance tracks
for the local youth
A far cry I warrant from some of my other creative writing. I wonder why I do this. Why do I bother to imagine things that pretty much exist anyway?

Well mine has the advantage of being anything I want it to be. It could be populated by Elves, Dwaves and Orcs if I really wanted it to. Yours has to draw on the talents of whomever lives in Katherine.
