  1. I re-read this and almost cringe - I've learned a lot from a lot of talented people since I started this story 5 years ago. If I had enough time I'd love to go back and rework it some and clean it up - sigh, time, time time. Thanks Dave! You know, I've read a lot of stories on GA. I'm loving this. Your writing is engaging and the words fly by.
  2. It's a line I may have to try. 😆
  3. Whichever way it goes with Damian and contact with Jackie, she remains his mother and the negative impact on Damian, has already been immense and will be even more so, after a prison visit. My own view is that Damian needs protection first and guidance from a professional who understands 10 year-olds. Ludo should visit Jackie, but not too soon either or it will arouse suspicion. Rather just leave her well alone until after the trial.
  4. Why did I take so long to find this story? Loved the first chapter.
  5. Mrs Winston appears again, as I had hoped she would. Alongside Lesley, Gordy, Graham and Dot, Mrs Winston could be part of a great friendship circle for our two men. ❤️ Gordy running a kids party? 😆 🤣 they would never forget it and the mums will want to be there too.
  6. This is great!
  7. This would have been a distressing incident for the boys. Well done Adam, for standing up for Damian! As for religious fervor, this is something you find in every faith and every community to some degree. It was bound to come out, but I think the headmistress dealt with it well. She too, may become member if the circle.
  8. As much as I dislike DCI Kemble, these jobs need to get done for the common good. Ludo handled himself well, and despite the snide comments from the DCI, he was strong and direct. Arthur is amazing.
  9. What a lovely Pastoral type if chapter, definitely reminiscent of Trollope's Barchester series as @peter rietbergen says, albeit a modern version. Yesterday, I drove through Stanford, a beautiful small Victorian-era town in the Western Cape (South Africa), with a stone Anglican church, a village common with a cricket pitch. In my head, this chapter took place in Stanford. Gawain is a great kid and I like Graham more and more.

    Just holding on

    I like Lesley more and more and I think she will become a real stalwart in their camp. Alessio has his goods on display. 😆 🤣 😂 I think Ludo and Arthur are in this for good. Still would like to see Graham and Gordy hitting it off.

    Press Friday

    A great visit from Gordy. Perhaps he can meet Graham Gordy and Graham. It has a ring to it.

    And the use of "partake" when they actually mean "participate".
  13. A pacey chapter for sure. Damian is going to need a kindly ear and wise advice to deal with the hurt he is bound to feel over Jackie's behaviour and intentions. Graham remains an intriguing character. 🤔
  14. Jackie is the evil ice queen no doubt. As others have said, it is ironic that discovering his sexuality saved Ludo's ass. All too often, it is what blows up lives.

    A waiting game

    The cop and his bulge again. I want sight of that 😆 A great day. Take as many as you can because the storm will come.
  16. Interesting times indeed. I do hope they're able to exonerate Ludo and Arthur. This is exciting.
  17. I hope Jackie is ensured.
  18. The plot thickens and what Jackie's been up to could be anybody's guess at this point. The copper's bulge needs to be investigated.

    T*ts up

    Son many good ideas. Let's see what Jackie's up to.

    Excellent description!
  21. Another amazing chapter. Damian certainly speaks his mind without a care in the world. I do hope he can maintain discretion once the whole things goes tits up.
  22. This was bound to happen. Despite Jackie's bad behaviour, it's not wise to have a child complicit to an affair. Still, I really like Ludo and Arthur.
  23. A fabulous chapter and I'm more hooked than ever.
  24. Hey @CincyKris, that makes perfect sense. The financial industry in London isnt called the "London Laundromat" for nothing.
  25. @Robert Hugill I'm laughing my arse off. That is exactly how I envisaged her and was going to say so in the comments. You've described her perfectly. I love Lesley already.
