Thanks, Graeme, for such a wonderful story. I started on it and couldn't stop. I know it was written several years ago, and I'm late to the party, but I still enjoyed having the opportunity to read it. As others have mentioned, the characters were very engaging. Like Trebs said, I felt a little sorry for Rhys because for some odd reason, he became my favorite character. However, you were right in not matching him up at that time. Now, I'll just assume he's married with children, and running around the yard playing with them like a child himself. Ron
