"...just a dreamer

who survives in shadows.."

 

Beautifully put but I think you are so much more than that, Jenny. A poem that eloquently underlines your love of writing and artfully depicts how many others feel. Paul :)

Yes, dogs can be like that - a beast to one person and as soft as butter with someone else. You held the tension all the way through, Jane. The weaving in of the family background and issues was deftly done. A very credible, enjoyable story...

Yes, 1-1 after extra time and, funnily enough, I can't remember the penalty shoot out score or probably choose to forget. Glad the Muggins clan caught the match even if it did end in disappointment. Onwards to the next tale of Alfred N Muggins...

Ah so this story will run on. This is good. You are building the tension nicely and the weaving in of the family history adds its own tension. Looking forward to more :)

Eesh the tension of making it back in time to watch most of the match. Beautiful semi medieval towns. Yes, I guess so. You should try Brackley as well at some point. It's very lovely and rich in history and interesting buildings.

Made me think of Stephen King's "Cujo". I must admit, I didn't see that twist coming which is always the sign of good writing. Adriotly done, Jane. Really enjoyed. Paul

Nicely done. How to unpick an ideology with a single question. Civilisations have begun and ended with rampant conjecture. The last few lines said it all :)
