  1. Squirmish – an object, creature or action that causes someone to squirm Flexting – the phenomenon of sending photos of men lifting weights via text message Misinfotainment – a source of hilarity brought about by somebody misunderstanding something they have been told Fomo – the father of someone who is gay Intaxication – extreme rage as a result of receiving a large tax bill from HMRC (or the IRS in the US) Brainspin – the result of reading a story full of typos, word confusi

    Thanks for reading. As the egg is the crux of the story, you may have some time to wait to find what happens with it. But keep reading and you'll find out.
  3. If we have the time I wouldn't mind seeing Versailles. I remember seeing it about 25 years ago with my mum - the fare on the RER from central Paris was a bargain at only 10 francs (that was when the RATP ran those old silver chrome carriages, I don't think they run anymore do they?), and a single metro journey anywhere was only 5 francs. Ah the good old days
  4. With the formalities over and done with, the council session was dismissed and its members went about their business. The head of the council, Giles Wynstanley, asked Thomas to join him for his evening meal. Giles Carruthers Wynstanley the Third was unusually young to be leading the council, having only recently celebrated his thirty eighth birthday - his predecessor was sixty four when she was named as head of the council, and the one before her was seventy one. He is English by birth, but h

    I really enjoyed it Lily. Well written and I love Jake, he is so adorable. I want more. Please. Pretty please.
  6. We're like practically girls, apple martinis all around I have never been with a girl, I do not care if you have one boob bigger than the other (no please don't show me, no really, no really it's not necessary) and yes I would love to invade your home for your superbowl party. I think the best I have ever been asked was, "So, if you were straight, which actress would you fancy?" (I was about fifteen at the time).

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm not quite sure yet where this is going to go or end up, but I am really enjoying expanding on what started out as a prompt.
  8. I walked over to the terrarium and picked her up. “Good morning my lovely. How are you today?” She looked up at me with those eyes of hers, and I not only saw myself reflected in them, but I could swear I saw her affection and love for me reflected back. “Time to clean out your home. It’s been nearly six months you know.” I started the process of cleaning. I removed all of her toys, trinkets, baubles and decorations first, and gave them a quick clean. It still amazed me not only how much

    I was a little slow off the mark with the advertising, sorry about that . Though glad you're loving it.
  10. I've never dropped trou to use the facilities. If my undies are sans fly, I just pop lil Andy (well, maybe not so lil) over the elasticated waist. When I was in secondary school there was a boy in my class who used to drop trou at the urinals (right down to his ankles).
  11. “Son have a seat.” Those four small, simple words which radically changed Thomas’ life were spoken by his father to him on May 14th 1995. He was six years old at the time, and his dad looked like a giant; that was nearly nine years ago. He dropped the biggest bombshell imaginable on Thomas that day. That was the day the six year old boy was told that dragons are real; and by real that is really real, as in actually really real. The boy was then told that he was not allowed to tell anyone ab
  12. People ask how and when it all began. It is highly doubtful that anyone really knows; not one-hundred percent, hand on their hearts, betting their lives on it sure. All that is known with any kind of certainty is what the sacred texts of the Ddraig Llyfr tell us. According to Taliesin chapter 1, verses 1-4: “Ac yr oedd pelen dân mawr yn awyr y nos, Ac Yddraigfawr gwneud ei hun yn hysbys i ddynoliaeth. Roedd hi'n ddiwrnod hyfryd, a'r dyn dathlu, Ac yn dathlu y wraig, a'r plentyn dathlu.
  13. Thomas is told at a young age that dragons are real, and that his family is part of a secret society dedicated to preserving the secret.
  14. 7th-9th gets my vote. Paris here we come I hope nobody has warned them about me

    Glad you enjoyed it.
  18. Hello new peeps. Hope you enjoy GA. And please read the anthologies.
  19. Not flying at warp speed: Warp speed is the method that ships in Star Trek use to travel faster than light speed. To “not fly at warp speed” means that someone is not doing something as quickly as they could. As many friends as there are on Facebook: People have dozens if not hundreds or thousands of friends on Facebook. This idiom indicates an unimaginably large number, akin to “as many stars as there in the sky” or “as many grains of sands as there in a desert”. It’s all Klingon to me:
  20. A really emotional final few chapters. A sad reminder of the fragility of life. But why do you hate poor Kevin so ?
  21. One of my favourite scenes. It's so touching.
  22. I plan to achieve an advanced state of inebriation on this most glorious Lá Fhéile Pádraig. Sláinte
  23. I believe it is some basketball thing.
  24. He started at my school our first day back after the autumn half-term. He was so cute, and had a butt to die for. We were told his name was Jeremy and he was from South Africa. He had to do the usual ‘introduce himself him to the class’ thing, but all I cared about was his pale blue eyes. I don’t really remember anything he said; I was too mesmerised by his accent and found myself staring into those eyes - I could so have made myself at home there. We became friends quickly as we had many
  25. If you like him, just ask him out. The human heart is not something to play around with.
