    Hope you can escape from the virus asap, we need your incisive, analytical and often very entertaining comments as much as possible. When I see your name and then a long entry I know we are in for a good time. They are much appreciated. Take good care. Gary hug 🤗
  3. After only two chps I’m hooked on this new story from @Mark Ponyboy Peters . It’s v nicely written.
  4. A funny, quirky tale from another world. Suitable not only for aquatic kin but also human kin like us! As for the author, a complete mystery.

    Chapter 17 - Adam

    I have a dear friend whose routines are not dissimilar- he would rather buy two copies of weekend Financial Times than share his copy………
  6. was t that how she got money for the drugs meeting her uncle? Certainly some form of abuse?
  7. Ok, @Mark Arbour, your number 1 fan is here to say……….. I got here first! Seriously, a fantastic episode we knew dinners could be drama-filled but lunch???? Joder

    If I had to sum up your writing it would be with the words “brutally honest”. It may not be your exact story but it is, sadly, for me believable. I think your stories have helped many, including me, to process the shit that happened in the past. For me, @Mikiesboy, you are a GA hero. 🦸

    Chapter 5

    Enjoy! I think you deserve a free pass for all that you have published this year. Well, you fooled me with Larry and Red getting together. A neat solution, leaving Ricky with no guilt as he prepares to tour. Nice work, Chris 👍

    Chapter 13

    Another excellent piece of writing. Poor Matt. 😢
  12. A very interesting piece. Thank you Drew. The discussion in the comments is also v thought-provoking. Well done all.
  13. This is a story which does not disappoint. The construction of the tale is excellent with two main characters who find true freedom from the past as their future together is woven. Another excellent story coming from the Pacific coast of Australia. Highly recommended.

    Chapter 10

    Two points: 1. The story itself reaches a climax I was not expecting, so kudos to our author. 2. Thanks to those involved in the discussion above. Here in Spain you can get into trouble if you’re swimming with the red flag flying. and now back to the drama….. 😬

    Another exquisite chapter. I loved how the mothers seem to have become more alive and real. I loved this: a rather throaty, filthy laugh. wonderful stuff, Robert.

    Or many an Irish father from the 70’s or 80’s…..

    Chapter 6

    A very good comment. Justin’s situation and despair resonate strongly for me. I survived long ago, I hope he does…

    Chapter 5

    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.
  22. A thought-provoking 350 words on life. It resonates strongly for me as I start my own “winter”. Thank you.

    Wonderful!

    Thirty-Seven

    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…..

    Chapter 15 - Adam

    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.
