    @Doha well, unfortunately we don't really have too many adult book stores here ... except maybe in some of the cities. Us country folk have to get educated and experienced by "other" means.

    Spending an afternoon by the lake was one of those things I had always treasured while living in Thompsonville. When we were younger, more carefree and without any commitments at all, Aaron and I had done this often. We would watch the kids out on the water, sailing or paddling the floating trikes, or even simply throwing a line in along the shore with their grandfathers, perhaps trying to catch something for dinner, or perhaps just sharing some quality time together. Doing that same thing

    It was only a few minutes later when we arrived back at Luke and Matt’s house. As we drove I mentioned to Aaron that I needed to shower and change before going into town and he looked across at me and grinned. ‘Do you think that’s such a good idea?’ I asked. ‘Probably not,’ he replied. ‘You know, it feels strange, all this getting to know you again stuff . . .’ ‘What do you mean?’ ‘Well, after everything that we have shared, I feel I already know you better than I know anyone

    I did say it's complicated, but not quite THAT complicated. 😀

    Nah, it's different here. 🙂 We don't have 'property taxes', but we do have various land rates, which are supposed to cover the services provided by the councils. I think there is another which is based on property value, not house size, but the aren't massive (unless you live in the really expensive suburbs). And rural properties are different again.

    The gravel road that led up the hill was straight and well formed, although in places there were cracks, some at least an inch wide, up through which weeds could be seen growing. I had the distinct impression that the road wasn’t being used that often lately. As I walked up the hill I nervously looked around me, half expecting a guard dog to come hurtling down the road, with its mouth foaming, or for someone to jump out from behind some bushes and yell at me for trespassing, or worse still,

    It was just after dark when I arrived back at the guesthouse, so I decided I would check in with the outside world and then turn in early. After switching on my laptop and while waiting for it to boot up, I checked my phone. There were only two messages, one being from Harry and one from my brother; Michael, whom I hadn’t heard from in a few years. Harry, I decided, I could deal with tomorrow, as I needed to talk to him anyhow about when he might be coming down. When I tried to call Mi

    @Paqman ok, I've figured out what to do! Will do some edits on ch. 10 when I'm online at home tonight, and chapter 38 will need a few minor changes as well. All fairly minor, but it'll sort this issue. I appreciate your picking it up ❤️
  25. Mark Ponyboy Peters
    Wow @Paqman nice pick up. Thank you! I'll have to do some more editing now! 😀 Stay tuned!
