Or many an Irish father from the 70’s or 80’s…..
-
A very good comment. Justin’s situation and despair resonate strongly for me. I survived long ago, I hope he does…
-
Tough but realistic drama between father and son. One feels for them both. Will they be able communicate healthily before the two weeks stay runs out? nice storytelling, @Mark Ponyboy Peters, very nice, indeed. Thank you.
-
A thought-provoking 350 words on life. It resonates strongly for me as I start my own “winter”. Thank you.

It’s easier to restore a clapped-out piece of art than to undo the damage done, consciously or not, by a closed and intolerant parent. A strong, thought-provoking chapter…..

So! I’ve had a literary orgy reading all 15 chps in one sitting and thoroughly enjoyed myself. And now, I become one your many fans who are dependent on the author’s mercy in uploading the next fix. This has already become one of my top ten stories on the site: fascinating storyline, great characters and perfect English prose. thank you @Andr0gene, so much.

What Al said!!

@Andr0gene a big thank you, not only for this wonderful story which I love, but also for the time you invest in replying/reacting to your readers’ comments. It makes for a first class reading experience.
-
This story should be dedicated: “To all incurable romantics out there.” this is such an enjoyable read, @Andr0gene. Well done!
-
Yet again @centexhairysub gives the perfect response to this delightful chapter. This is a model piece of the letter-writing genre. I love it. Ps Some years ago, after my mother’s death I found a large envelope containing all the weekly letters I wrote to my parents in the mid-late eighties describing life as a student in Rome. Next visit to uk I must get them out of the loft and remember what it was like when we used to write letters before emails came along….
-
An utter delight. Well done!
-
I totally agree. Very nicely engaging writing style. And now chp 2 waits!

Chapter 169 Sports Cars, Yachts, and Expensive Holidays
Gary L commented on Dodger's story chapter in Chapter 169 Sports Cars, Yachts, and Expensive Holidays
Robbie (and Sue) have just been played beautifully by Don, I fear. 15 months isn’t that long? Plenty long enough for Don to do some clever accountancy tricks. 👿👿👿 A great installment, Mr D. Thank you. 😊 -
This is a really good story, @chris191070. Well done 👍

Another v interesting character. I loved the pacing of the chapter. Things didn’t seem rushed. I’m hooked. 😁

"Last Night I Dreamt Somebody Loved Me"
Gary L commented on CasualWanderer82's story chapter in "Last Night I Dreamt Somebody Loved Me"
My thanks to you @Paladin for reconnecting me to this story and author. part of me wants to rush through it to see how it ends up and the other part wants to go slowly, appreciating the words as John swirls and smells and tastes his fine burgundy wine. This is heady stuff. -
"The Boy With The Thorn In His Side"
Gary L commented on CasualWanderer82's story chapter in "The Boy With The Thorn In His Side"
I feel the same. Somehow I got distracted and only thanks to @Paladin’s review have I reconnected. I really love the prose style - excellently written, I just hope Oliver doesn’t get too hurt….. -
As ever, many thanks for pulling so much together so well!
-
Sorry but I don’t understand quite a few of your comments about the plotting in this story. For me it’s really well done and very coherent but we all can have different interpretations and understanding. But I totally agree with you that the story is coming along nicely. 🤗

Another gem to revisit this summer if the two puppies allow me when they finally arrive next week.

Nice one, @weinerdog! Watch out, though…. She has spies everywhere

There goes a brave person!

Back to the world that we know and love, and in the case of Xpress, hate, so much. Great early chps to get us sucked back in! Love it!!
