Yes that is correct. it has also been thoroughly checked for most errors made in the earlier version.

No, it was Devon who designed the prison, not an architect in the USA, who stole the originals

For three years now, Devon has been working hard with his studies, having graduated from high school with honours in Science, Mathematics & Physics, and Distinctions in English, Chemistry and Business Studies; where he chose to do Engineering as his major subject and Physics as his minor subject for university. Devon was very lucky, having a townhouse just three blocks from the university, available for him to use during his studies, thanks to his grandparents, who were travelling around

This is the story of Devon Carlton, a young man, who started attending university studying Engineering, but switched to Architecture, and from there life takes a dramatic twist, firstly with national and international consequences, then to avoid media attention, Devon and his two apartment mates flee to a Pacific Island for a holiday, where they meet the members of the Celtic boy band EQD.

Well he did leave Xander standing around all afternoon, instead of being shown onboard the Aquaria some time after presenting his business card...

Chapter 8 “Hey, how are you feeling?” my partner said to me, looking a little concerned, “Very tired, and looking forward to lying in bed with you later” I replied softly, grinning, and Travis chuckled at this. By the way, I was meaning to give this to you earlier in the afternoon, but it was so busy, I totally forgot all about it till just now” Travis said to me, as he handed me a business card, and my smile disappeared as soon as I read it. “When did you get this?” I asked in an angry

The cattle station that this story is themed on, has recently had problems with bush fires and cyclones...

With twelve people per group, with twelve tours per hour, I estimated that we would have just over 700 people through on the tours, which will last for half an hour each. In the late afternoon on Friday, as we berthed at the cleared marina, so as to make room for us, a television station van was already waiting for us, but it was not the television station that Dad had contacted and invited to tour the vessel. When the other Television station crew arrived, Dad decided to allow both tv crews

For the next few months, while we patrolled the eastern side of the Pacific Ocean, we kept our relationship a secret, although we found it very hard to do that when onboard Oceania. Eventually, Travis came up with a solution in regards to our working relationship, with him taking on the role of Senior officer’s steward, and Nigel became my personal steward and assistant. During a late night conference with my father, I announced that Travis and I were now partner’s and that Travis was now do

“So, it is all automated for keeping all the plants alive?” I asked, “yes, and we have a team that goes to the island on a monthly basis to check everything is running smoothly. They are the same with Howell and Baker Islands, which have the same setup, as you see there” Dad said. “Well, since they are the same, then there is no need to visit the other two islands, we will make our way directly to Wake” I replied. “Good, see you in about 5 days’ time, goodbye,” Dad said. I made conta

Hi James, as you see this is a continuation of Aquaria, I am also working on a continuing story with Xander, with brief mentions of his cousins, Sebastian and the twins. Plus I am re editing an old story that was originally posted, but taken down when I had some time off from writing. Originally called Architect to Music, it will have a new title before it is posted. i am also working on a completely new story, so you will see some more stories appearing soon. Regards Q

All other former homes are in the process of being renovated, of which some will be made into cafés and shops, while essential buildings like the police station and detention complex, the island health centre, and the general store, are almost completed having major extensions made to each of the buildings. Everyone was very happy with their new modern homes, although some complained about having to travel so far, just to get to Adamson, even if it is only a few kilometres. Instead o

The township of Adamstown, we think should remain as it is, with any residences in that part of the island, to be used to upgrade services to the community in the way of more shops, cafés, restaurants, a community recreation centre, more sporting facilities, and maybe a separate administration centre for the island, and we are happy to pay for all the upgrading of any buildings to make these ideas possible” Jonah said. “This is more than generous, for Lloyd Corporation to be doing this for

A lot of information about Pitcairn Island is true, it has lost a lot of its population due to the lack of future to the island, which now has just a population less than 50 people.

Once inside the police station, we all sat down in the small conference room, and we were given cups of tea, “Now, maybe you can give us some more information on what is about to happen to our little island, as the Governor in New Zealand has not exactly been very forthcoming with information, about this Lloyd Corporation project, and I have been hearing a lot of concern from the members of the council on this issue,” Sergeant Langston said to us. “Sir, I believe that you have a council meet

After nearly two weeks of sea trials, I kept the crew busy with a large number of activities, both while at sea, and for the four days that we stopped at the centre group of islands at the Abrolhos Islands. By the time we arrived back at the Australian Marine Complex, just south of Fremantle, the new crew of the RV Oceania had settled into their new living and working environment. When we arrived and had docked beside the Aquaria, Uncle Jonah was waiting for us, and he came aboard as soon as
