Woodie Diggit in " Skulduggery"

A

production of a
P2020027.jpg
film. Shot on location at
PB190002.jpg
Studios.

The news was not good and hit Woodie Diggit like a runaway freight train. He could not grasp the death sentence that Dr. Seetharamadoo had just handed him.
"Why me" he thought to himself!
The doctor did give a glimmer of hope as he explained to Woodie that there was indeed a cure. The ground up pedals of the tinflower would counter act all the symptoms of the dreaded disease "mustdigeosis."

He would find the tinflower and cure himself. Woodie reached in his coat pocket and opened his
P2020002.jpg
and called his
PC240011.jpg
Marie who immediately broke down and wept at the news.

Woodie looked at his
P2020038.jpg
which told him it was
P2020040.jpg
. Just enough time to go home pack and catch a
P2020055.jpg
to Digatopia where his doctor told him was as good as any place to start looking for a tinflower. Dr. Seetharamadoo had also told him that he had a week at the outside and that he would begin to hallucinate within 36 hours.

At the airport Woodie was met by the
P2020069.jpg
who gave him the necessary travel documents. Woodie put on his best
P2020021.jpg
, shook hands and boarded his flight.

Once in the air the Embrae 190 banked west. As Woodie looked out the window he could see the
P2020035.jpg
at Peggy's Cove.

As he landed in Digatopia the sun was just setting. As beautiful as it was Diggit's thoughts were elsewhere.

Woodie retrieved his baggage and went to the
P2040098.jpg
rentals and decided on a white
P2040100.jpg
as the heat was almost unbearable in Digatopia.

The first symptom of the ailment appeared as Woodie thought he saw a boy on his
P2020009.jpg
riding across the sky. He staggered over to the car opened the trunk and was greeted by a talking
P2040081.jpg
with a hat on who told him to go south. Diggit blinked and the apparition disappeared just as quickly as it had come.

Woodie was not one to ignore providence and headed south with the paved road soon becoming one of dirt ever narrowing till Woodie had to proceed on foot as his vehicle could not go any further. The dirt road was now but a foot path along the ocean.

Woodie put all his gear in his backpack save for a
P2020012.jpg
as Diggit had that gut feeling that he was not alone. That he was being watched. Then it and by it I mean it stepped out of the bush and gave Woodie it's evil eye!
P2040080.jpg
which caused a feeling in Woodie's throat as if there was a
P2040091.jpg
lodged half way down his esophagus. After the initial shock Woodie decided that he had the
P2040090.jpg
to give this creature the
P2020068.jpg
but it quickly fled back from where it came. Diggit continued on his quest with a
P2020063.jpg
added to his steps after his latest confrontation. After turning a bend he had to cross a small stream that was teaming with
P2040086.jpg
of every color under a rainbow while the far bank was being guarded by a land
P2040088.jpg


Woodie continued on undaunted thinking of
P2020057.jpg
and
P2020052.jpg
his two daughters who were recently married and starting a life of their own.......as Woodie's was was nearing it's end!

Hunger set in so Woodie reached into his backpack and took out some
PC290036.jpg
which he made short work of. He leaned on a tree loosened the
P2020013.jpg
on his coat and began to play his
P2020075.jpg
. While strumming he looked around and noticed some purple
PB170010.jpg
but no tinflowers. He arose and slowly began his trek as his strength was ebbing. Another hallucination began. It was raining
P2020030.jpg
. The horror! The horror! Thank God there was none of those mobile manure makers around or he would have lost it big time. Normality returned.

P2020023.jpg
short time later Woodie had to rest again.
He was loosing his
P9040004.jpg
big time and yet another weird sight materialized in front of him.

Again Woodie gradually became lucid. His senses returned. Getting to his feet once again Woodie nearly fell off the mountain. Looking to his left he saw it! The end of his quest was near as he spotted the tinflower with it's medicinal
P2020046.jpg
. Diggit with his near last breath grabbed his
P2040096.jpg
and dug out the plant. He mixed up the roots and pedals and swallowed the concoctions.

Within minutes he felt renewed and totally cured! His mission now was to return home and
P2020018.jpg
out a few problems with his beloved Marie!
