    Consequences

    Ah... such honeyed words - Skyacer... Mortaumal is no Jarek, but equally engaging - I think. Australian indigenous people, like gays, don't want indigenous-specific laws - they'd be satisfied with total equality and acceptance and just a little reparation to compensate for all the dreadful harm done that has prevented them from enjoying the relative affluence of everyone else.. The government still retains the right to make laws specifically for Aborigines - leaving them outside human rights legislation that applies to everyone else. As for Uluru and spaceships... I have a tale specifically designed for you! But you'll have to wait for two more books to read it. Thanks for reading and commenting.

    Thank you Wesley.

    Chloe and an obviously distraught Cador came running out of the house at the sound of the car. Hugs, explanations, apologies for getting lost, promises to be more careful and not trip while going for the mail… and they were bustled inside. Jarek explained his lack of clothes by saying he’d been in the garden when Sebastian called and hadn’t bothered to dress. Zeno was still wrapped in the blanket to hide the cuts, so he said he was cold and would love a shower. Cador joined him, soothed the cuts

    No Jeffrey - it means we are both rational and sane - at least I hope that's what it means otherwise...

    His fingerprints aren't on record, and I'm pretty sure they don't bother to track land line calls unless they're already suspicious. But it's a good point.

    Indeed! A secret it must remain. Who would be the weak link?

    Few would be aware of such a distinction. Glad you liked it.

    Abduction

    Monsoon clouds blanketed the city the following morning, threatening a deluge and fraying tempers. Violet’s body was discovered by a cleaner, the cops were called, her documents examined and the suicide note studied. The police in her home town were relieved—at least they’d been correct about one of their suspects in the drowning of Bindi. Her companion, Irma, had to be tracked down immediately. As the death occurred on their turf, the City police put two officers onto it, but were having troubl

    Poor old Violet is as toxic - mentally - as all the wild beasties. Toads, skinned, gutted and cut into segments, are devoured with relish by my hens - bones and all. Like the other poisonous things they are not aggressive, they have to be provoked, so it isn't dangerous to live here.

    Ha ha ha... I adore puns.
  13. Amanda's problem is that she likes to see and bath her hands in blood and guts - as long as they're other people's. Subtlety isn't a turn on for her. She can't be very stupid as she's apparently had multiple successes, getting the kris for example...
  14. Yes, she's a one-off special.
  15. Irma spent the night in Amanda’s spare room. She woke at her usual time. Head, throat, back, groin, aching. She ran her hands over her body. Naked! Where was she? Where were her clothes? She sat up slowly. The room whirled and she toppled sideways. Lifted fingers to her face. Sticky. Raised her arms. Filthy smell. Awareness percolated and she dragged herself to the bathroom, relieved herself, then leaned against the wall until everything stood still. ‘I drank too much,’ she whispered. It

    My pleasure, Jeffrey. Yes indeed! Our Sebastian, who will appear again in the story after next... if you can hang on that long. Thanks for reading! Seriously - it is gratifying indeed to read my readers' reactions.
  17. Adieu Adele - I love it. alliteration can be such fun... thanks for the compliment.

    Thanks, Jeffrey. How horrible for your friend! How pleasant for me that you are enjoying this increasingly macabre tale.

    I am deeply saddened by the news... I also wait, both breath and brain bated, to read your learned comments. I often write comments on 'word' then copy and paste; that way when I stuff something up I still have it.

    Must have pressed the save button twice. Will see what I can do. [A few hours later] Ah!!! All fixed than's to Cia's magic. .

    Meanwhile, back in the wop-wops, the police investigating Bindi’s murder had been as resourceful as Violet, and discovered the probable destination of their major suspects. However, as they had no one qualified to take on a murder investigation and all suspects had left their jurisdiction, they sent a report with all necessary details to the Regional Headquarters, where it was processed and passed on to the correct department in the City. Unfortunately, as the summer holiday season was underway,
  22. Slap them.... oh very good. Don't you think they deserve more than a slap? It's great that you want people to be happy, that show a generous character. I'll do my best between here and the end... not long to go.
  23. Your sentimental nature is adorable - your partner is fortunate. Yes, they really are bonkers - dangerously so. "Not much prose" you say ... you are correct. "More than enough is too much" has always been my maxim in all things. I reckon the readers have probably more imagination than I have and can fill in the gaps themselves - probably creating a more satisfactory picture.

    Sebastian.

    You can call her anything you like - PB sounds reasonable - clearly you have some sympathy. Karma eh? Is that the reason a tree branch broke through the fibreglass roof of my toolshed last night?

    Sebastian.

    Thanks. I tend to agree, but if we all got what we deserved....
