Despite all the typos, that was a very well told tale, @D.K. Daniels! I honestly thought the narrator was going to drown when he fell into the water. Your description of his panic as he was struggling to get free from the ladder held me spellbound. I liked the way you didn't tell the reader just what disaster had fallen mankind to leave the two boys in the situation where we found them. That may have made an interesting story in itself, but it wasn't necessary for the reader to know. Of course, I'm left wondering just what the future will hold for them...

What a wonderful little tale! A first I was convinced that Paul was completely right, and that Chris was a self-centred prick who never really listened to a word he was told. It wasn't until near the end, when Paul opened up about his father, that I realised just why Paul was frightened of committing to a relationship, and also realised that Paul actually does listen. Nicely told, Gary!

You and me both, buddy! You and me both.

As my old grandpappy used to say: "There's nowt so queer as folk."

I'm glad you did put that final paragraph in, @D.K. Daniels. Even though the title half suggested that someone may listen, I wouldn't have been sure that it was going to be this particular principal without that final sentence. A nice tale. And nicely told, as well

Sweet dreams, Bucket!

Hey, Gary! Hope all's well with you.

Hi, Clo! I'm thinking you have the answer to making those girls grow...

I think it may all be @Albert1434's fault....

Would that be the nude beach, Bob? Or are you having to cover up with a Speedo?

I've uploaded Chapter 3 of The Charmed Life of Danny Murphy to GA. (If anyone's even remotely interested )

Hey, Bertie!

Good afternoon, Kitt. I just wish we occasionally got the sort of weather that might even justify installing AC over here.

You might need more than one...? You driving out to breakfast? Or paddling out? G'day, all!! Somewhat overcast here in the West of Ireland, but feels like it will stay dry for the day (I could be wrong about that, though). Temperatures around the mid teens (Celsius).

"Where on earth did that come from?" I asked, more than just a little confused by this sudden change in conversation. "Don't get me wrong. I'm not judging you or anything. But it can't have been easy. Coming to grammar school from one of the council estates." "Oh, that," I said flippantly. Whereas in my early years at grammar school I had felt ashamed of where I lived, I had in the past few years actually become proud of the fact. So I wasn't in the least bit upset at him for bringin

Hey, Xan!

Hey Page!

I think lots of us can remember an unwelcome visitor like this one. I'm not sure whether I would ever take such extreme measures to get rid of one, though. Nicely written, @Rigby Taylor. You have me chuckling quite a few times as I read it.

You're quite correct, @Parker Owens. This piece really does sound better spoken out loud. I could imagine it being told around a campfire late at night.

As I read this, Hunter really is just that: a hunter. Keagan's obviously looking for love, but Hunter seems to be only interested in getting his rocks off. I'm not even convinced Hunter is actually gay - for example it seems that Keegan is the one who has to initiate the kissing. I hope I'm wrong. And, if I'm not, I hope Keegan isn't going to get hurt too badly when he realises his love isn't going to be reciprocated. Beautifully written, nonetheless, @Comicality!

Hey, Drew

That's maybe why they call it a smartphone... 'Cos it's smarter than you?

Hey, Page G'day, duggie Hey, Alberto!

Bittersweet tale of self discovery. And the way you told it, @Comicality, really did make it sound like the confused thoughts of a preteen.

Yea, great story, @Defiance19! Like @ColumbusGuy, I also was worried for a while that the stalker may have turned out to be homicidal...
