    @Summerabbacat to be perfectly honest, until I re-read the chapter I couldn't even recall what I had called her! 2012 -- when it was originally written -- was a long time ago! lol It's not often that I chose a name for a particular reason, usually it is simply a random choice, but I'm kind of glad she's a Karen . . . and a good Karen at that!

    Thank you. That's not one I was familiar with 🤔

    -- Chapter Nine -- After being checked over by the doctor and then having to answer endless questions from the police officers, I spent the night in a cold hospital ward, mostly alone. It was just for observation purposes they had said to me. My cuts and scratches had been cleaned and checked and I had been poked and prodded and had every nook and cranny of my body checked over, much to my embarrassment. Afterwards I was allowed to shower and was supplied with some emergency hospital i

    -- Chapter Eight -- For the second morning in a row I woke up in the arms of Dallas Pearce. A guy could certainly get used to this, I thought. I awoke to see the valley filled with a dense fog, the mist floating above the waterhole in front of us, the sky a dark grey, fading to a more pallid shade the higher you went, promising sunshine later in the day, I hoped. I lay there for a long while just watching the morning and listening to the sounds; the sound of the water running, which al

    -- Chapter Seven -- When I awoke the second time that morning it took me a few moments to remember where I was and just how I had found myself here. I could see that the fire was still burning weakly but daylight was coming. I could clearly see everything outside our cosy little nook, although the floor of this little valley was still deep in shadow and wouldn’t be likely to receive any direct sunlight for hours yet. As I came fully awake I realised two things. Firstly that an arm

    Progress on all fronts! Great to see. And I'm looking forward to getting to know Kevin! 😉

    @Summerabbacat I shall discuss it with my manager! I'm sure Harry can make you an offer too good to refuse?

    Or how about just Penny Bottomless? Her depths know no bounds!

    @Philippe I've seen an occasional Long Johnson ... but they weren't surfboards! 😉

    @Lynx003 as I recall from when I was writing this, I wasn't worried about them at all! 😉

    @Paladin I'm sure they'll get rescued 🙂

    @weinerdog so, I have another story that is partly written, where the main character ends up in the porn industry for a while. I guess I'll have to ask @Summerabbacat for permission to use those names! I hope he doesn't ask for an outrageous royalty fee! lol

    Hmmmm... I had better start taking some notes!

    Yep. Still Monday. I usually set them up to post just after midnight, so today's was only about 14 hours late. At least I managed to still get it done Monday! 😁 Enjoy!

    -- Chapter Six -- The old mine was apparently called The Good Charlotte, reportedly named after the wife of the first owner. Our ranger friend took great delight in telling us that Charlotte wasn’t good to him after all, with the miner, one Clancy Roberts, going broke while working the mine, losing it in a poker game and then having his wife, Charlotte, run off with his best friend. The second owner did considerably better however, soon striking the rich vein that Clancy had been conv

    Given that it may well be 48 hours plus without power I suspect that the contents of the Tucker Box freezer will be a lost cause 😭😭😭 NOT HAPPY JAN!

    Thank you!

    @Paladin I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I say that we would love to hear those stories! I used enjoy my weekly trips on the old red rattlers when I first moved away for work at 18 and used to travel back and forth each weekend. Met some interesting folks 🙂 MP

    Hey everyone. Just a heads up that the next chapter might be slightly delayed, thanks to the biggest snowfall here since 1984. We have trees and branches down everywhere and haven't had power in about 30 hours, and it's not expected back on until "sometimes" tomorrow, so unfortunately I can't get onto my PC to upload it. I promise I'll get it done at the first available opportunity. Apologies for the inconvenience!!! 😥😥😥

    @Summerabbacat hmmmmm..... I guess you'll have to wait until Monday to find out now..... 😉

    -- Chapter Five -- I wasn't sure what time it was, but I had been lying awake for what seemed like hours, unable to sleep. I had been hoping I might have been able to get my rocks off again so that I might have been able to finally go to sleep, but it wasn’t to be. The silence stretched out, interspersed only by the quiet snores coming from the next room. 'JJ . . . are you awake?' I heard Pete whisper into the darkness a little while later. I froze. 'No,' I replied after a

    @Summerabbacat and others. Perhaps you might like to see my AI created vision of JJ and Dallas. It's kind of close enough to what I had in mind ... though you may notice JJ's appearance is slightly different to what was described ... that'll be explained later ! 😋

    - Chapter Four - We had been told by Spills and Birdie to have our gear packed away and be back at the mess hall within the hour, so that we could be briefed before starting the first part of our lessons for the two days we would be here. Today we would be looking at the history of the place, while tomorrow the plans were to visit one of the few old mines that were still in good enough order for us to be able to enter and explore. Pete and I met up with Merry and her roomie, a gir

    @Summerabbacat "perhaps some brumbies will emerge from the National Park and kick some serious arse" ... now why didn't I think of that? LOL And I'm loving the deep thought that ALL you guys are putting into this!!!
