    I'm glad you're impressed by Andy. I like Beth's description of him as a 'rough diamond'.

    Tricker.

    Wow! How many times have I thanked you for your reviews Stephen?Well, I'll keep thanking you because they're totally appreciated.lol - the country is 'kind of' imaginary but the hamburgers aren't. Almost every food place which sells hamburgers has 'The Lot' as one of their menu options and all those ingredients are the norm.

    Thanks for the review joanna414.I was worried about the explicit parts of the story and was tossing up whether to post or not but they were integral to the plotline so I went ahead anyway. You've certainly put a smile on my face for the day.

    TRICKER. "Will! How would you feel about joining our tutorial staff next semester? Twice you've helped me with worried students, and twice they've given me glowing reports about your help. James finished last semester's exams with flying colors and he said he'd never forget the way you worked together." An image of James in his racing bathers filled Will's mind and when he tried to fight down a flush of embarrassment without quite succeeding, he received a slightly surprised look from the prof

    A tutoring job leads to some interesting cultural plays.
  8. Limericks - lol -we could post forever. Thorn's reminded me of this one. Miss Farad was pretty and sensual And charged to a reckless potential. But a rascal named Ohm conducted her home. Her decline was, alas, exponential.

    Thanks for the review sandrewn. Yes, for a story which was meant to be lighthearted there are a few darker moments creeping in.

    Well, thank you sandrewn, for the comparison with Flipper. I'm sure Wirrin will cope - maybe with a little help of some kind.

    Thanks again Foster_!!!

    Chapter 22

    The AIs and the Witnesses, as you can see from their response, have incredible respect and wonder for life, so I I'm certain there'll be no lethal retaliations on their part. The Cadre doesn't share that respect.

    Thanks again Steve,Yes, the dolphins get the best treatment possible. The rogue scientist is strong on action and ,yes, you've picked it. The concern about him is justified.

    Part 20

    Thanks PPW, I'm glad you're enjoying the lighter side of the story. When it first started that was meant to be the full approach - but somehow drama sneaked in as well.

    Yes, He's a happy chappy and particularly enjoys the running battle with Thom.

    ATTUNGA Part 22. *** Shocked, Wirrin blanked for a moment before his words started to tumble. “He couldn't be. I was speaking to him a couple of hours ago. He had everything planned for what to do if there was danger. It would only take him instants to flash onto the InterWeb. He must be on a storage system somewhere and he'll contact us when he can.” “Wirrin, he's gone.” Akama's words thrust like a sword through the numbing incredulity. Wirrin pulled his thoughts together and looked to Pir
  19. Can't remember Raymond Feist? - one of the greats for Fantasy fans - shame Andy - lol
  20. BEST WISHES FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY!
  21. Thanks for the post iSimba. I found it amazing, inspiring and awesome (in the old sense of the word).

    ATTUNGA Part 21. “We must be hearing things. Perhaps you should go back to bed?” “As if that would make any difference, and Sonic's arriving in a few minutes so I couldn't.” Calen had just amazed Wirrin and Thom with his announcement that he'd been too excited to sleep properly. “Why is this more exciting than the Monkey Mia attack? You slept through that.” “Did not!” Wirrin had to laugh. “Only because Thom nearly broke your ribs waking you up.” “This is different. Dolphins are moving to
  25. Go for it Scotty. You have chosen fertile ground for a story which could run the gamut of human emotion. Yes, it might be challenging, but with careful thought and a good heart you should be able to avoid the dangers Zombie has mentioned. Perhaps, before posting, you might run it past some beta readers.
