    Thank you SO much Mark. A nice surprise 😲
  3. I HATE Mr B having been mistaken for him by a US immigration official who wanted “my autograph”… “But I fixed the queue to get you autograph..” Obviously, I changed my hairstyle, glasses etc., even more so after a Mr B film was shown on a flight to Spain and people thought I was the f***ing Mr B***. on a more oriented comment… great chp…. 🤩
  4. We all know the show and the acidic tongue of the presenter and here we have the show, round by round, but this time with supposedly bright teenagers.the highlight of the story for lies in the excellent dialogue created by the author. it’s a fun, lightweight ride, perfect to start the weekend. Well done!
  5. Such a fun read!
  6. “What is the word beginning with “d” that expresses the sheer pleasure upon reading a great story?” “ Delightful?” ”Correct!”

    Russ on Holiday

    One of your best summaries, @Summerabbacat. It make me smile 😃 @Robert Hugill the chapter, and holiday, is a delight. You pack into 1500 words what others might try to create in 3,000. Thank you

    Oslo bound

    Never have, nor never would, fly Ry***ir. The ceo is a s*** and the add on costs are unbelievable. He even floated the idea of a 1€ charge to go to the loo. Glad the guys finally chose wisely! Not sure why Oslo was their choice but I’m jealous as I’ve never been to Scandinavia. Good, if difficult chp.

    Round Six

    Asking myself why I like this so much? On the one hand I loved the original series but, more importantly, I think it is the great quality of the writing. Dialogue is not easy but our author has proved round after round that he dominates this skill. The plot is great but the writing even better. Bravo 👏

    Colin 9

    “Sparrow-fart” is a new one for this Pom! Not one to explain to my English students in class…… I love your comments @Summerabbacat 🤗

    Colin 9

    Short but sweet. An enjoyable moment reflecting on how Colin is growing in self-esteem and acceptance of his body. Many of us remember the need for changing room strategies. Nice.

    HMS Endymion

    Mark, you could write a doctorate in the things you happen to “stumble” upon… as with @Canuk, ms Austen is the best!

    HMS Endymion

    Granger has a command, England is safe! Watch out Mr Napier….. great stuff.
  14. Can’t wait to get my two dachshund puppies read to chase Spanish cats all over the park!!!!

    Dumped

    As hard as it is for me to write something “positive” about z**h, I totally agree. This must be due to Mark’s skill in his ability to torture his loyal fans……
  16. I would have been distraught, @FitzH1943. Like Granger, Mark is a perfect gentleman

    I think Sonia and Elijah made a big mistake…..

    Of one accord with my fellow reader @Summerabbacat. Great stuff, Robert. You continue to entertain us well.

    Round Four

    After an 11 hour day, your tale was perfect to relax with a smile or two! No pressure but as Anne R would say, “So AusGliterrati - and what a name! - can you keep the glitter shining in the next round?” I’m sure you can!!!!!

    Round Four

    Great fun! It’s decades since I watched the original show in UK.. Anne Robinson was the queen of mean put downs 😱

    New House

    I like the characters a lot but more your story telling so please keep the creative juices flowing, 🤗
  23. The first family holiday together. Normandy sounds pretty cool. These guys don’t seem like the euro Disney types 🥳
  24. Interestingly, the wonderful Carlos H nagged me to get writing and to start with prompts. Until June I’m working 11 hours a day including travel and then a new horizon opens. No spoilt students, no awful nouveau riche parents, two min dachshund puppies, if partner will finally say yes, and a word doc open to start writing. That’s my dream.
  25. I hope you accept your readers’ opinions that you have a genuine talent for writing xo
