You are welcome.

I don't know that she cares what Granger thinks. I think that she's so used to getting her way, the thought that she isn't must be agonizing to her.
-
Thanks! I'm not sure I'd call this the last leg of their journey, since they must ultimately go back home. We'll see what happens...I don't know yet either.
-
Thank you for the nice compliment. You are ahead of yourself. ;-)
-
I'm glad I could brighten your evening! I doubt that Lady Elgin is as easy to tame as he thinks she is, but at least he's not putting up with as much of her crap...or at least the others don't have to. I suspect the Prince was happy to escape from his governor. :-)
-
Well thank you for your encouraging words!

It seems that he did, and that he's implementing his plan. Can't be easy for a pampered princess to find out that her spineless husband is actually in charge.

December, 1799 Palermo, Sicily Inasmuch as there could be chaos on the deck of His Majesty’s frigate Valiant, there was chaos. The final stores Andrews had ordered hadn’t arrived until this morning, courtesy of dilatory Sicilian merchants and victuallers. And contrary to his wishes, the Elgins and their party had not yet returned. In the past, he had been able to threaten them by shortening their stays in future ports, but as this was their last planned stop, that punishmen

An update for you loyal and long-suffering Granger fans. Chapter 29 was up not too terribly long ago, and Chapter 30 is in final edit and should hit in a weekish. Chapter 31 is in initial edit. So I've done a bit of writing. :-)

I think this guy is a pretty good Tony, from what we can see in the pic. -
Too funny. He usually doesn't get left too high and dry.
-
Thanks much! It's a labor of love (it's been a fun story) and I also get to give Sharon a crap-load of work to do. Bonus points!
-
I think that, at least right now, Granger is powerful enough to be able to stick by Nelson, but Nelson isn't making it easy.
-
Chapter 30 is in editing, so it should take a week or so to get that one posted. No battles, but we do move ahead.
-
I think Granger feels the same way that you do. He finally sails in Chapter 30.
-
LOL. I'm thinking of the last scene.
-
Thanks. The story has been a bit slow, but it's necessary, IMHO.

December, 1799 Palermo, Sicily Granger stood on his quarterdeck, observing the activity around Foudroyant as she evidently made ready to restock her stores. Hardy had returned to her, but Berry was still ashore. In the past, Granger would have selected Nelson as his first choice of admirals to serve under, but with this situation where Lady Hamilton had a seemingly complete hold over him, and where Berry had now returned as Nelson’s flag captain; for the first time, Granger

March 19, 2003 Escorial, CA Will “Where have you been?” Zach asked, since I’d vanished for half an hour. “In the kitchen,” I said. “Dude, it’s almost time for dinner,” Zach said. “Not even I’m that hungry that I can’t wait.” “Sometimes you are,” I joked. “I’m in charge of dinner tonight.” “Yeah, I heard about that,” he said. “Frank is nervous.” “Nothing to worry about,” I said playfully. “He’ll like it.” “So what are y

Dude, you are hella old.

Maarten, Thanks for your kind words, and for being one of the most predictable Will-haters of my readers. (You and Tim are pretty reliable in that regard). I don't get why you think I've sidelined JJ? I gave him a whole chapter, and I do have plans for him in the next book. Sigh. To punish you for your uncharitable thoughts, the last chapter is all Will, just for you. :-)
-
Brad never was one for practical jokes. I'm not keen on them myself, but they're funny for those of us who are watching.
-
I thought the scene with Will and Brad was pretty funny, but that's just my opinion. It's an interesting stage for JJ. He's been totally wrapped up in the skating world, and now this injury will tear him away from it. You may be right, in that if could be like breaking a spell.

LOL. In the ninja hierarchy, that would make Elizabeth a Kage, I believe.
