I love the humour in this story. In the context of the calendar with naked footballers "my friend can touch you up on her computer" was a delightful double entrendre.

I read the last chapter and the epilogue today. I've enjoyed it very much. It includes one of my favourite characters, Miss Jenkins, and as a bonus mentions a number of towns I know. The story is supposed to be the first of a trilogy, so there should be a lot more to come. Johnny is supposed to receive a medal so royalty may be involved eventually.

I've been thinking about this for several days, butt still can't prove it though I do believe it. This is as far as I've got: Notation: In expressions of the form: abcd... a, b, etc are integers in the range 0 to 9 and abcd represents the number with digits a, b, c, d All numbers are assumed to be in base ten unless otherwise stated. The transformation T is defined to that T(abcd) = abcd + dcba The Sum S of any number N is defined as S(N) = sum of the digits of N, so S(abcd) = a+b+c+d The 'Hypothesis' is that any positive integer can be converted into a

Thank you for very exciting story. I'm glad there is to be a sequel if only to confirm that Vincent won that fight. -

I liked that story. It gripped me in a way that few short stories manage. There was a wonderful balance between the grim past and the sweet happy child of today. Thank you for posting it.

I liked Zack's way of dealing with George :-) -
Someone here should be able to make a story out of this:
