    “Do you think Gordy will be there?” “Are you allowed to call him that?” Damian nodded, “He said to call him Gordy.” He looked sideways at his Father, “That’s OK, isn’t it?” They were walking down to The Garden. It was a brilliant day, Ludo had taken the morning off, and Damian wasn’t at school, it was closed for emergency work on the drains, for fuck’s sake. Much against Ludo’s better judgement they were visiting The Garden. Since the great naked event, Ludo had visited on his own

    'lame' sounds about right

    Therese dropped the girls off at the house, rather than meet at the Rec; an implicit acceptance on her part that the twins would want to change into their dungarees so that they could be more active. Once the girls had dashed into the house, however, she lingered. Ralph knew she’d be curious, and he also knew he ought to tell her about Nolan. The girls were going to meet him, they’d talk. “How was the event?” Ralph shrugged, “I got some great photos and got to ogle lots of scantily cla

    Another of Damian’s fascinations was with men’s body hair and its sheer variety. Perhaps if Ludo had been hairier? One of Damian’s friends, Howard, had parents who’d taken a group of the boys swimming. Damian had come back fascinated that Howard’s Dad was so hairy that he had hair on his back, and so much hair, down there, that his willy had disappeared. Comments like this would be followed by reassurance that Damian had not stared. But Ludo was worried that one day, he’d get a visit from an ira

    Where I grew up, knickers refered exclusively to female undergarments and tended to be referred to rather large-scale industrial scale ones. But at university in Manchester it was common for local blokes to refer to all undergarments as knickers. Clearly an extensive amount of research into English undergarment names needs to be done!

    Oops, regarding Russ. I might have boobed about his appearance, but then perhaps everyone's view of him is partial, memory is fallible. We will learn more about him as the Parborough Chronicles progress, he even gets his own story in instalment 4.

    If it hadn’t been for the fact that they loved football practice, Ralph didn’t think he would have got the twins out of the house on Saturday morning. There were serious tantrums. It was not so much because Ralph having to work on Saturday evening meant they had to stay with their Mother, but it was more that they were stuck with Therese’s tea party. This was pronounced lame, and not what they wanted. Ralph ended up reading the riot act, behave or they wouldn’t get to the Rec on Sunday and

    By the time Ludo got to Arthur’s on Tuesday, he was frazzled and rock hard. Work had been stressful, Jackie had gone back to being her ‘too busy to bother’ ice-queen, he couldn’t get Arthur out of his mind and couldn’t tell anyone. It didn’t help that Damian seemed to have gone tree mad, and school had only exacerbated this by announcing a botany project, with a field trip. It was as if the Gods were conspiring against him. But Arthur had had a brainwave, or two. There was pizza dough, the

    Thursday, instead of the wine bar, Nolan was going round to Ralph’s, and Ralph had to tell him. Ralph had made spicy lentils on Wednesday evening, in sufficient quantity to feed the twins on Friday as well. They ate and drank first, low key as planned. Still at the table, with a second glass of wine, Ralph decided to get things off his chest. “Ivor at work reckons that I ought to make a big statement. A fuck-off to my parents.” Nolan lifted an eyebrow, “Like taking me to tea?” “B

    Thanks, glad you are enjoying. It is always strange when readers pick up threads in my writing that I'm not aware of when actually doing the writing! My current schedule means Ludo will be back Monday and Friday next week.

    In fact, the weekend proved to be a relaxing family one. As if to give the lie to all Ludo’s worries, Jackie was tired after work on Friday but upbeat. She arrived home early enough to have a late bite to eat and a drink with Ludo, having said a proper good night to Damian. The two of them snoozed in front of the TV; things were friendly, though a good-night cuddle was just that, it didn’t lead to anything more. Next morning, she was bright and breezy. After a pleasantly leisurely breakfast

    That's because the author wanted to delay bringing Gordon back into Ralph's story until later!!!

    Embarrassingly, I find it easier writing nasty wives than nice! But Therese does get some of her corners rubbed off. Eventually!

    Morrie was positively vibrating with energy and excitement, again. Ralph had driven over late Monday, ostensibly for a catchup on the website, as new pages and new product lines were being added. Also, there had been teething problems with the online shop, and Ralph feared he would have to do some soothing of client ego. Not a bit. Morrie brushed off the online problems, which was entirely a-typical of him, he didn’t usually just leave things to the experts. Then he hurried over the ne

    Thanks, I noticed Crossing The Line, which is gratifying, but failed to spot this story was there too, which does seem rather amazing considering. Especially as there ain't much mystery yet!!
