    Chapter 32

    I was suddenly awake – or at least, half awake. It was still dark, but I had no idea if it was the middle of the night or I'd just come to a little earlier than normal. Then I heard the noise and suspected it had been that, or something similar, that had woken me. It was a sort of whimpering noise. The type you get to hear on TV or at the movies when someone is very scared or is lying on the ground after being beaten up. Now the noise came again, only this time it was louder and my body bega

    You didn't use exactly the words I had in mind, but the message was the same.

    I expect Geron will be able to enlighten you, or someone else, but if not I'll do so in a while.

    Seems Richie must know the 5Ps Loved the little exchange between the three boys while they were preparing the mannequins.

    Well Suited

    Thanks for the positive comments. Possibly Julian will decide to change courses next year. I guess if he continues with the cooking he should have no trouble finding a job, but will have to be prepared for working long hours as opposed to probable problems finding a job. Decisions, decisions!

    Surprises

    She is evidently only really interested in herself. Perhaps being thrown out may be the best thing for Julian?

    But there aren't enough of them for a Beetle Drive! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beetle_(game)

    Chapter 13

    Good to find out more about Marnie and the others who are usually in the background. It's fortunate they are all good kids and happy to share and work together. I suppose it might be argued they've had to realise there is a need to work together to have a chance of surviving, but I think the innate goodness needs to be there initially for that to happen.

    Chapter 12

    I think that at about the same time as that Hoover catchphrase, their rival's was 'Nothing sucks like an Electrolux'. - as demonstrated there!

    Chapter 12

    Much less tension in the air - apart from a high speed all purpose vacuum cleaner cum dishwasher. Reminds me of an ancient vacuum cleaner advert - 'Hoover beats, as it sweeps, as it cleans'. I suspect the next chapter is going to be rather different as the plans for the zombie are finalised. Perhaps there are even some helpful ideas in that book?

    OMG! Now we're into blue Pictures

    Chapter 31

    You are very kind to say that - thanks! There should be another chapter along in the fairly near future.

    Just don't get the wires crossed!

    Chapter 1

    If you are referring to the original beating, I guess Ethan, as the favoured son, felt he had to much to lose in taking that route. Once he'd left home perhaps it was a case of 'out of sight, out of mind.'

    Chapter 11

    The plan seems to becoming together - these kids sure aren't dummies.

    Chapter 1

    One hopes that such things don't happen, but sadly they do. Perhaps Wayne should have done as you suggest, but that wouldn't be easy for a kid with no other support. Much more likely to just run I'd suspect.

    Chapter 1

    Glad you enjoyed it. I think though it is rather late now to continue this story. But maybe one day I might come back to it........

    Chapter 1

    Nothing specific was said in the story, apart from the reference to him being 'in the city'. One might assume banker or stockbroker, but you are free to choose as you wish

    Chapter 31

    Sounds more like a dessert if you omit the dumplings. Perhaps Adam will give it a try when cherries are back in season - after all, Troy likes his cherries and isn't the way to a man's heart via his stomach??

    Chapter 31

    We're agreed on the cherry muffins CG. Cherry soup I've never heard of - sounds interesting though. It just occurred to me that the mention of that story sort of gave this one a touch of realism, especially after having Paul wear a zombie t-shirt.

    Chapter 31

    Best not to let your guard down - especially if there are zombies around! (Great story - well worth the plug)
  22. Ivor Slipper

    Chapter 31

    A new one to add to your armoury then, but I doubt they'd be much use against a zombie Am sure Troy won't mind chauffeuring, but he'll be happier still when he gets his own vehicle. I rather suspect Troy was almost as glad about Adam being given the all clear

    Chapter 8

    Problem is that with the way cats breed, the country side would be overrun with them Best we think of them all as being in catatonic state.

    Chapter 31

    Yes, he now has a very different view of the world, and his place in it, to the one he had a few months ago. I think there is still some more in the tank.
  25. A very different zombie here though!
