William Shakespeare is one of several writers who produced great works when stuck behind closed doors (he was in quarantine when he wrote King Lear.)

With our own 'Fifty Shades of Grey Hair' - see classics for the thread - firmly in mind, we thought it might be time for us to gather together and write a new great work between us. Who wants to start?!

Great Aunt Maud was getting ready to celebrate her 93rd birthday. She was a sprightly old gal with bright piercing eyes and a wicked sense of humour. Still regularly attending line dance evenings, life art classes, campanology at her local church and tap dancing, she was in rude and robust good health. Until the morning of her birthday when disaster awaited her.
