  1. @Gary L awww shucks. Thank you kind sir!
  2. @Ivor Slipper oh dear!!!
  3. -- Chapter Thirty-eight -- By the time six o’clock came around, just an hour away from when the parade was due to commence, Whitlam Square was like I had never seen it before. There were crowds everywhere, all intent on trying to find a good vantage point, while floats had also started lining up in College Street closer to the starting point, to be ready to roll once the official activities had been completed. Off to one side a stage had been erected, with portable seating alongside an
  4. @Summerabbacat yes, I do have to admit that Kylie looks hot hot hot in this video. As for those other creatures . . . even Katie from the Cross would be hotter than them! lol
  5. @Summerabbacat oh yes ... one I about as rapt in as I am her sister! Thank you for sharing!
  6. -- Chapter Thirty-seven -- The city was really buzzing when we finally stepped off the bus just near Hyde Park. It was a glorious morning and there were people everywhere, with many of them heading for Whitlam Square and the start of Oxford Street, most likely with thoughts of grabbing a good spot from which they could view the parade later in the day. ‘Have you been into the city very often?’ I asked the boys as we stood watching the stream of people pass us by. They both shook t
  7. @dboggs9700 thank you very much!
  8. @Summerabbacat yerp . . . your imagination is off and running again! Nice call on Esme though! 😋
  9. @MastaMak hmmmm ... but there wasn't a slice of bacon in sight! I will admit that I have a soft spot for pancakes and maple syrup for a cafe breakfast ... but if that's not available (and it often isn't, to be fair) then I'll settle for eggs Benny! lol As for take away / takeout, yes, I probably agree that we Aussies prefer the former ... but I'm hearing the latter more and more these days ... I'll blame American tv for that!
  10. -- Chapter Thirty-six -- I was still thinking about that look on Benevetti’s face as Helen and I huddled around her computer to look at the discs we had brought back from the Imperial. That it made me a little nervous was something of an understatement, but surely not even he would be callous enough, or stupid enough, to try anything just because I was the new kid on the block and might be cramping his style. I had seen it before in some of the other stations I had been posted to in my

    Chapter 21

    Thinking ahead! I love it! 😀
  12. -- Chapter Thirty-five -- ‘What’s wrong?’ Adam asked, sounding quite concerned. ‘Didn’t you see him?’ I answered. ‘Who?’ ‘Corcoran! That’s who sent me the drink!’ In a flash Adam was on his feet and looking towards the bar area, then looking around the room. I stood and joined him moments later. ‘Is there something wrong?’ asked Adam’s boss, Nathan. ‘I’m not quite sure,’ Adam replied. ‘We’ll be back in a minute.’ Together we headed for the bar, dodging our
  13. Oh . . . well . . . you might be pleased to know then, that there are at least TWO new Rick Cooper mysteries in the planning stages! 😉
  14. @Summerabbacat oh yes... one way or another ... Corcoran is going down! 😉
  15. I always look forward to responses! You never disappoint! Thank you!
  16. -- Chapter Thirty-four -- Just as soon as we arrived back at Adam’s place, he switched on the television, apparently having not forgotten what I had said earlier about catching the news. ‘I’ve been curious all afternoon,’ he said when he noticed me grinning at him. ‘I was even checking the online news sites to see if there was anything juicy that could have been what you were hinting at. I figured that it would have had to have been something to do with state parliament, seeing as that
  17. @Summerabbacat okay then, so the name of the drag troup shall be the BananaFritters! With plenty of whipped cream!
  18. @Summerabbacat what GREAT names. I might have to use them ... especially with the kids from T'ville about to head off in search of Trinity/Patrick
  19. @Summerabbacat When All is Said and Done... In the Summer Night City One of us Will face our Waterloo And The Winner Takes It All...
  20. @akascrubber well ... not exactly that particular band ... just a bunch of drag queens who call themselves The Twisted Sisters! 😋
  21. Haha ... no, not this time.
  22. @weinerdog hmmmm ... not necessarily. Just depends on what it's all about really.
  23. -- Chapter Thirty-three -- It had so far proven to be something of a frustrating week, and I had to admit that by the Thursday morning I was beginning to feel a bit down, even if that was the day on which both Assistant Commissioner Barrett and the police minister were due to face their accusers, according to our friends in internal affairs. Helen and I had already done our rounds, having spent the morning traipsing up and down the streets of inner Sydney, before settling for a bite to
  24. -- Chapter Thirty-two -- It was now Thursday, just two days out from Mardi Gras, and in the days that had followed since that Monday morning meeting I had been filled with conflicting emotions, as I tried making sense of everything that had recently been happening. On a personal level, I could see that my world was changing rapidly. My life with Adam was gradually appearing to be taking shape, as I spent more and more time with him in his apartment and also began the painstaking proces
  25. No, not searched, but I think from memory that was just where Corcoran had been arrested. Then after his early release he went to ground, while the cops went back to place the residence under surveillance in case he returned. And yes, everyone in Rick's circle are in danger! MP
