    As one of my history lecturers once said to me, “history isn’t always about dates”.

    Um, somehow I don’t think that a confident, Italian aristocrat from a family which once ruled Milan for centuries will go down well with Travis’s insecurities…. Our evil author gets more evil every week 😱
  5. Off to listen to Handel’s Messiah in a couple of hours with a massed choir of 300+. Not my favourite thing to go to but our friend with terminal pancreatic cancer is singing in the choir. Yesterday she was in Madrid for advanced treatment (8 hours in car) and tomorrow again. She is an inspiration to everyone on how to live life to the fullest.

    Chapter 20

    As is the tension…. 😥
  7. AM feeling the creative buzz this week with nearly eight thousand words written. Mind you, it could be a case of what an American friend told me years ago. At Harvard back in the day, ha ha, a friend took so many uppers to revise that on the day of the exam he wrote furiously for the full time and left v happy. Unfortunately he had written his name over and over again for two hours….. dare I revise what I have written whilst possessed by the writing muse? Ummmmm 😕

    Chapter 19

    An horrific but important chp. Uff 😦
  10. Utterly frustrating in this day and age when mobile phones exist. If DHL can give you a clear, updated time….. Here, home visits are v rare indeed and the nursing team rarely leaves the health centre, unless for their break.

    It’s taken me a while to separate who is who but I think I’m there now… just I love the artistic feel in this and the Essex story. We go from wordsmith to watercolourist but the creative angle is there. I think that this, for me, is an aspect that sets @Robert Hugill’s stories apart. Hugely enjoyable.

    @Summerabbacat’s comment has left me slightly flustered, to say the least! Still, there is. Sense of mystery about the half-finished out buildings

    I’d put a bet on that it will! No pressure, though 😁
  14. A new one for me and the search link, thank you good dr, shows we have two luthiers in nearby villages.

    And vulgar?
  16. Just had UK friends for dinner. Now staggering to bed at midnight. I’m too old for all this!

    Final Chapter

    Well said, @centexhairysub Thank you for so many great comments during this and other books… Please be gentle with me when I start publishing my first longer story set in Spain during the last days of Franco.
  18. Gary has a very warped sense of humour….. 😁
  19. I couldn’t imagine what on earth pizza socks are. I looked them up. Unreal! Do they really exist? Mine would have to be sin queso! Xxx

    A Star is Born

    At end of Freshmen Will seemed to be emulating Matt and his infamous blindness in the face of Wade’s concern about a threat to their relationship. Now what will happen with the tables turned, I wonder. A great start, Mark. thank you!

    Final Chapter

    What a journey we have had with these characters! Many thanks, Mark, and now off to the next challenge!
  22. I wear two pairs of socks indoors with heating at 22°c / 71.6° f. Are you guys all cold blooded or something?
  23. You must be MAD, Tim. That’s minus 6°C. The doggies would be freezing. And their owners.
