    I like how the lack of detail lets one’s imagination fill in the gaps.

      Thanks, Misky. I didn’t want to incriminate myself!

      Hello Hilary! I imagine Eastbourne’s been reverberating a bit during the last few days!

        Yup – I was going to include that thought … we’ve had a few sessions … I think it’s probably over now! I saw the Red Arrows on Thursday … they’ve gone to Canada now … not sure how they get there … fly???!!!! Cheers – lots of people here too! Take care – Hilary

        It’s the first time for years I’ve not been. I see lots of them flying over Bexhill on their way to the show and back.

    Your “Edgar Allen Poe” side is showing, Keith. Excellent tale.

      Thanks so much. I guess it makes a change from my ‘Winnie the Poe’ side!

    Oh, what a cliffhanger in the literary sense of the word…Well done Keith!. You have told a gripping tale with very little details…most excellent. The true definition of a story for the readers imagination to fill in the blanks___!

    Yes, but what, in effect, did he offer her? Mayhaps she rather spend herself rather than succumb.

    You do have a dark side under all that humour!
