  1. Poor Troy……. What is he getting himself into? Love the descriptions of the boss’s clothes, oh and the body sounds acceptable, as well 😳
  2. A rollicking read!
  3. “That’s utterly useless if I’m working on a murder mystery…” does this fit for @Thirdly? Just checked 19 stories on GA for murder and have I missed one?
  4. Ummmm. I think I know who it is but can’t remember their name! Useless. Some good clues, though.
  5. Great summation of what many readers feel, I suspect. Robbie needs fresh blood….and a job!
  6. That’s how I understood the scenario. It could be turned into something much darker but I don’t think so. Love the humourous style of our hero’s mind. Waiting for chp 2. Good start, indeed.
  7. Thank you for your good wishes but so sad to read about Zeke. I can’t get my head around how people can be so cruel. At least he got a load of love from you xxx
  8. There will be celebrations, drs instructions be damned for once!
  9. Thanks to everyone! BTW my weiner dogs are exactly these colours!
  10. Two of a kind!!!
  11. Post Brexit the rules changed for acceptance of uk documents in EU. Uk guidelines dont show this. So first attempt was rejected for not having an “apostille” attached to my uk documents. Then with second attempt they rejected sworn notary declaration for not quoting a 2004 law. Finally all done. Means I’m safe from eviction by partners’ horrible relatives and we both get widower pension rights in uk and Spain. Not much but some security.
  12. Hi everyone! Just want to share some great news: after a year, three attempts and 1000£ in fees, I now have a civil partnership approved in Spain. 25 yrs after a one night stand and we have survived!!! So happy.
  13. I fear the last answer. Not a fan of hers. The content was not as worrying as the title. I fear our esteemed author wanted to give his loyal readers a moment’s fear!!! Naughty…
  14. There is an excellent story on this site about him in Brighton.

    Prologue SO

    This resonates with me too. I attended three primary/elementary schools all over England, one of them twice. At the age of 10 the lad from Manchester landed in Kent, s of London, to be ridiculed for his weird accent. Fortunately I survived but shed many tears as the outsider. Secondary education, at least was in one school and an excellent one at that. great writing
  16. Shucks, my run of luck has run out. This is a new one for me. Thanks
  17. @Mrsgnomie, I too have come back for a reread of, now, four of your stories. Whilst I loved the buzz of the weekly installments and the great “crac” in the comments, reading them through without distractions made me realise just how good the stories are and the intricacies of their plots. Above all, I think the most enjoyable part is seeing your characters growing through some pretty rough patches and reaching the other side. May the muse be with you! Love from sunny Valencia, Gary ps I too have started writing but with baby steps!
  18. Totally agree with this excellent analysis. The change over (makeover) from the awful JJ (in my view) to the maturing rapidly Jeremy has been a pleasure to read. Great writing, of course, v clever storyline and yet with the odd flash of the JJ of old. Brilliant!
  19. Any chance of your meatloaf recipe, Wayne? The meal sounds wonderful. I’m drooling at the thought of eating it!
  20. A short, bitter-sweet tale, which sadly reflects the bigotry instilled in so many sports. Well-written and the story breathes the spirit of Comicality.

  21. So more insight into the “Prickly Poet”! A v good read as the characters become more and more fleshed out. Vince is a revelation, I bet Freddy can’t believe it…

    That is depressing to read @Thirdly! Though I look forward to reading it. I have to get started but real life creatures, the weiners take up so much time. 001 has just chewed her way through her car safely belt and appears proud of her achievement…..
  25. Did you forget your medication this morning?
