I am getting curiouser and curiouser: Georgie's own kid there in England. [or, at this stage, the very pregnant Caroline] What to expect ? Have I understood it correctly: the baby will be born sometime in or about February ? and, currently it's late December going.... They'll be in England within weeks. Then -assuming George will be allowed a longer stay in England, he'll be present when his kid be born.... Why do I have a nasty feeling that Georgie is not going to sire any more children... whup.

about the great topic of 'top': The tops have actually a *lot* of pressures. 1) so immense number of bottoms, it's so imbalanced in numbers 2) a top needs to keep it up, which means that he would not be of any use for cases he does not lust for at all. A bottom can always 'pretend'; a top's *tool* will reveal his possible play-acting pretty soon. In these circumstances, I do not wonder at all why natural selection has made so few to be tops. It's because then, there's going to be a satisfactory number of attractive bottoms and versatiles, to lust for; to be his sexual partners. Of course, that leaves the unattractive portion of bottoms to pretty lousy fate: only rarely, they would enjoy real cock; their sexual congresses being much more often with dildoes and such...

well, I think that of course, the 10% who are supposed to be tops, need that one representative. Last count, I think there was many more than 9 bottoms in the story already.... However, as Cody started to appreciate his own bottoming (wouldn't that style be actually called 'power bottom'?), should we actually label him as 'versatile', NOT a 'top'

ch20: now Georgie has moved to the stage of having fosterlings.... Bentley and Dardennes. He is no longer a mere boy himself; he comes as head of a family..... Michel would probably be loaded to Georgie's wife's care. [since about 90% population are usually not gay, Michel would probably turn out to be a hetero... many years probly before we see...] and Bentley will be heterosexual, I bet...

ch10: no one can complain about lack of sex.... I am looking forward to what will be Cody's place for 'his life'....

welll. My imagination says that you had a nice week of voyeurism Totally another point is, what possibly those Spaniard guys thought about their eager watchers. By the way, a great portion of 'Spanish' are bad-looking, frumpy, round, buttfaced shorties. and then, there's the breed of some 'castilians' - slender, nice-featured, good dark hair..... Unfortunately, I do not particularly like the climate of central spain, so 'castilians' are rarer....

ch 43 stomach got upset.... I really did not like what Clump is.

ch19: the new kid -as I see it- would intended for to be a heterosexual, right? I think a gay boy's take on the experiences on Berwick, would be tad different. Poor boy. Intriguing to see how long will George's this 'holiday' in England be.

Minorca changed hands -iirc- a few times. IS it really in British hands in early 1790s ??? (I have a nagging feeling that Spain had received it back already earlier..... which -if true- would mean it cannot be in british hands)

ch 9 and 8: well, these twinks I am amazed in finding a real top character. Is Cody going to be changed into a bottom, eventually...

war is cruel - now again, a friend lost. very young, still.

ch 17: nicely ripe

Unfortunately, wikipedia cannot be relied upon, about these sort of esoteric details. Too many writers in wikipedia write what they want to believe, not what is attested in sources contemporary to events in question.... instead, observe that the text of this recent treaty, speaks of His Most Christian Majesty of France but at the same text, of His Catholick Majesty of Spain. No 'most' there.... treaty of Paris, 1783 http://avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century/paris763.asp

as I recall it, the Spanish monarch was simply 'Catholic Majesty', not 'most catholic'..... My rule of thumb with this whispers to me that the french monarch were 'most christian', while the Spanish and Austrian ones were 'catholic' btw, as I recall, it was 'rey catolico' in spanish.... no 'most' in that, neither - it came from 'los reyes catolicos', the marriedd couple of two reigning kings in spain....

ch 16: live and let live This must have been released long ago - I have been absent for a while

ch 15 oh, the young Chilton - and his arse tension accumulates: when are sodomites going to get Winkler... by the way, the number of willing bottoms in this story is vast...

pray tell what Scots kings.... I cannot recall any scots king so named in my repertoire of medieval knowledge...

ch 5 hmm. young Alejandro. It's clear to me we will see him in the future....

My prediction is, he is not going to want to continue to f**k his father - now that he sees him. There's some deep aversion, presumably, to hinder that particular incest. By the way, there's also another thing, between siblings who have grown together when 0..8 yrs old, that one has the name Westermarck effect.

I am sensing that the name Graeme is not one of the positively favoreds for CJ Reasons for such an aversion could be evident to some, though I think I am not aware of everything

ch 14: of course he can f**k Chilton. just my opinion.

ch4: the portion of tops in population appears to be low. I actually think it's realism.

ch 13: may be or may be not. indispensable, really ? however, obviously Shafte is not nor will be a threat to his relationship with Travers. Because, George is a natural-born bottom Shafte cannot replace Travers.... because George needs to get f**ked, and I think that's indispensable.

huh. frightening situation, that.
