  1. I mostly did a like, so you would have the full range. But I did find a couple of things to laugh about. Mainly they was both of them are insisting on putting pride before sense and letting feelings rather than logic rule their interactions. No matter how angry Aidan is about what Heath did concerning his promotion, he should understand how all of Heath's reputation is based on him being honest and trustworthy. If it turns out he's being lied to about the ingredients, this will be a huge scandal. Trying to defend his boss is silly, when he should know the guy is an asshole and ruthless.
  2. It's one thing to take off and fly. I'd like to see them land safely too. But I liked the subtle ways Justin tried to convey his interest in Bill, asking whether he chased ladies and seizing the chance to grip his shoulder in support.
  3. Well, from a strategic point of view it makes sense for the US. Harry S. Truman wanted to buy Greenland too.

    Chapter 7

    I like Tracy less and less. He forces Jack to come out to him, then threatens to tell Jeff, informs Jack Jeff has a crush on him, and immediately hits on Jack and molests him. Well done on betraying Jeff and confirming your reputation as a predator. Jack's mom may be a bigot and have all the wrong reasons for saying he should stay away from Tracy, but I think Jack should come to the same conclusion. I'm glad he stood up to his mom and Jimmy, but I can see the wreck approaching too. He should talk to his father, who seems to be the only remotely sensible person in his life.
  5. I'm just waiting to see the SATW comic which will arise from this. Neither could people in Greenland and Denmark. Some of the comments were quite funny.

    Lacking Means

    And if it ends up being too late, they will regret not being proactive.
  7. Well, since I think Aidan should have realized all on his own how his boss and indeed the whole company are totally fucked up and unfair, I find his reaction another sign of his immature and naive outlook on life. I get that he was surprised, but he should have listened to Heath explain. Heath should let him stew until he comes to his senses. The only bright spot is that when Aidan's mother call, he can tell her he broke up with his boyfriend, because she was so negative and nosy. That should teach her, especially if he then says he'll never tell her anything about any future boyfriends. But of course, he's too insecure and wishy-washy to do that.
  8. But at least he saw that the bigots knew they were wrong, because they dispersed as soon as the tutor arrived.

    Goodbye

    Clifton is still selfish and immature, but at least he's slowly finding his way back to being a friend to Nathan. I enjoyed the Lawrence put down immensely as well, and I hope we'll get to see the face of Arlene when he casually mentions getting the Chronicle to cover the calendar and the fete.
  10. It's a very special story, even with all the heart-breaking parts.

    Chapter 6

    Compatible in bed does not necessarily mean they'll work out as a couple otherwise. I hope Regan stays firm about his wishes for independence and makes Gideon revise his stupid assumptions and opinions.

    Chapter 5

    Nope, I don't like Gideon either. I'm still trying to decide which like to choose: or .
  13. Have a nice weekend, I'm busy with work at the moment, so that's why I'm not around so much. Hope you're all OK. We've had a bit of excitement in Copenhagen the last few days, some idiots blew up the front of the Tax Revenue Office one night and the entrance to a local police station last night. No one was hurt, but we're not really used to anyone blowing things up with dynamite. Apparently, there have been other similar incidents this year, hitting a few businesses and cars. None with injuries or fatalities, but the tax office explosion was right opposite a train station where a few people were waiting for our local subway, so they had something of a shock. Let's hope the police catches the perpetrators.

    Chapter 36

    Great challenge and Maurice is now their ally. I don't think there was a cliff hanger, just a pointer to a surprising but logical conclusion. If the opal is a Realm Stone, maybe it's the one belonging to the Dead Realm. Wouldn't it be cool if Kieran could bring it back to life ? But would he then need to reside there as Realm Lord ? Will he want that if all his friends except Mr B goes back to Earth ? I'm pretty sure Kieran won't be separated from Rhys, but perhaps they can be together on Earth for as long as Rhys lives, and Ranevargar and Maurice can oversee Kieran's Realm until he returns. But first hey have to free Rane, defeat Maynor and confront the High King.

    Chapter 35

    They've reached their destination and overcome so many obstacles with a combination of cleverness, talent and Kieran's power. I wonder who put up the mind barrier, since Ranevargar didn't know about it? Will getting past it alert someone ? Hopefully, Krol will deal with the monsters.

    Chapter 34

    Ugh, I got behind on my commenting, even though I kept up with reading. But I can see everyone else have covered all the topics. I think it was very mature of Kieran to decide to stop worrying about the High King possibly being his father. He needs to focus on the Maurice situation.
  17. A Danish expert debunked that one in our news, as soon as it came up. He says no research supports this myth. Nothing political about discussing this myth. After all, the idea is common everywhere, and lots of people believe this, not just politicians, since it's deceptively logical to the human mind (says the Danish expert in the article).
  18. Considering what I've been reading in the news about sexual abuse of kids in Boy Scouts I'm glad to hear about your great work, dugh, and about the boring but safe experiences you had, Page.

    Rainbow Colours

    I'm glad you agree (and that you also corrected my typo ).
  20. Despite a few mishaps along the way, plenty of sunshine, color and kindness brighten the existence of Eric, the old, gay man we met in the first part of this series. He still struggles with being grumpy and arthritic, but with the help of Andy he explores the LGBTQ world, from news stories to the meaning of Pride. We also get to know Andy and his boyfriend better, including their plan for getting married and some family issues. Northie has done another marvelous job of engaging our hearts with this tale from rural England.

    Rainbow Colours

    Maybe Andy should have explained a little in his message with the link to the Pride pictures, so Eric was more prepared. But he managed even so, and in spite of his head shakes over the costumes, Eric had a fairly positive but realistic reaction. The plant expedition was also a success in spite of the initial rain. Andy got another idea on how to help Eric, I'm sure he can donate some of the more common spices like thyme from his stock at home. Preferably in clearly labeled, easy-to-open containers. The quick conversation with Adam's mum served to remind us of both the abuse issue and the wedding plans. Just get a large chocolate cake - and preferably from a non-religious baker to avoid the bigots. A small watering can is another good idea, but I'm surprised Eric doesn't have a jug. A cheap plastic jug might be easier to handle and can also be used for other things. And speaking of gifts, the shirt with a rainbow was a nice touch. It made Eric feel like he was part of the festive crowd. I loved how he realized he was not alone, and there are plenty of other LGBTQ people, including his own age group. I'm glad he caught a glimpse of Rob and recalled his last name. I think Eric would have been to shocked and tongue-tied if he had come face to face with him at the Pride. He needs to think about it and talk with Andy, who may be able to find out where Rob is living and what he's doing. This can help Eric work out how to get in touch and what might be possible conversation topics. A very satisfactory and heart-warming sequel, and your fans will be back for more.
  22. Thank you for explaining, Cia. The concept isn't something I was familiar with, so I was confused about the Goal Box purpose. Personally, I don't think it will motivate me, but hopefully the Goal Box will work as planned in general and be worth the work. I can see we're already exceeding expectations in three out of five categories.

    Chapter 4

    Talk about miscommunication I hope Regan makes Gideon's life Hell until the idiot improves his attitude.

    Chapter 3

    Well, at least Honey has a wonderful first time with his mate, with no awkward conversations about mate or one-night-stands. And Jedrek is outvoted three to one on whether they should stay together.
  25. Can you explain what the Goal Box shows ? What does it mean when the box says 61 out of 90 new chapters and 787 out of 950 new chapter comments ?
