Yes, so true. I used to be a spokesperson on news in uk on cases where no bishop had the guts to appear. Then worked for 10 yrs with abused males. Many were victims of clergy abuse, as I came to realise for myself when a therapist called me out on it. But. Others were from parents and relatives. Finally, burned out I moved to Spain and learned that I wasn't a superhero but an ordinary guy. And that's ok.

Memories of first trip to usa. Landing at LAX I could see burnt out bloxks after the 94/5? Riots. Then treated to PCH ,up to Sonoma Valley. Great trip and an amazing experience of how good Americans are at making you feel comfortable.. We Europeans must seem cold and distant in comparison. A great read mr C. Thank you.

Chapter 137 If the Shoe Doesn't Fit
Gary L commented on Dodger's story chapter in Chapter 137 If the Shoe Doesn't Fit
Ace chapter, once again mr D 🌈🌈 -
My god that was fun! As a writer for years you have kept your readers enthralled! I got hooked a couple of years ago. My favourite moment of the saga? The revenge of Will on his dads. Stay safe and don't keep us waiting too long 🤗

Another great episode! Mr Dodger. Thanks 🤗 🍷🍷🍷🍷

The Firework Committee
Gary L commented on Richie Tennyson's story chapter in The Firework Committee
Very nice and some v witty dialogue. Thank you. Gary L -
I really think this works out well. It shows that the author can not only do mega-sagas but also a stand alone shorter piece which srill has depth. Many congratulations!

Great read, again. What betterway to pass the lockdown in Spain than reading Mark's epic series. And now, time to revisit the British Navy 🤓😈😈😈😈😈😈

When these events took place I was aN eleven-year-old aNd I have hazy memories of watching the drama in the Sorbonne. What I think is really great is the way Mark seamlessly, or so it appears, combines historical facts with a fictitious family. Many congratulations

Nearly nine years later, confined to "house arrest" in Covid-19-afected Spain, i have revisited this great writer. Mark, I so enjoy reading your work, thank you. Un abrazo

Am really enjoying this during quarentine in Spain. Love the humorous tone. Good work!

Chapter 2 Meeting the Family
Gary L commented on Dodger's story chapter in Chapter 2 Meeting the Family
Treating myself rereading 133 chapters of this great "family" saga. I'm really enjoYing this journey Thank you Mr Dodger. 💤💤💤💤💤💤 time for bed ..... -
Another good chapter mr Dodger. I am now rereading from chapter one. It's really interesting to see how you have developed the characters over this long period. I can see both change (ie development) and continuity, a sign of a really good craftsman/person. Its Tuesday night here in Spain and a sh**ty day at work... And then Robbie appeared! Thank you x

I was enjoying the story until the episode with comments generalising about how women feel or act. Perhaps the author was describing the views of his character but it felt pretty sexist to me. I live in middle class Spain. Our next door neighbour has been threatened physically and legally by the father of her child (whom he had wished to have aborted), my partner's cousin was murdered by her ex for trying to reject the role for women he had learned, and rEcently I had to listen as a female neighBour was hit and broke her arm....

A fascinating mixture of Emotions in another excellent chapter - well done. I find Robbie and his troubles" as intriguing now as I did many months ago when we discovered him in the UK. THANK YOU Mr Dodger. Happy New Year from sunny Spain 😎
-
I emotionally identify with Hank ( I always thought that the older brother in the parable of The Prodigal Son got a tough deal) but in the way I mess things up I'm another Chase. I'm hooked already. 😄 Happy New Year and wishing you health in 2020. Gary L
