The shoplifter - a continuation.

I said I had a mind to extend some stories, this is the first.

I wrote The Shoplifter in 2012 which has over 7,700 hits and 239 kudos, so it seems you liked it a little.

I've written a sequel which I will post soon, there will probably be another after that, which isn't written yet and will depend upon how much time I have to write, being a rather busy woman, I have squeeze things in when I can.

If you haven't read the original story, the follow up will miss quite a lot. Here's a link:

Re-posting SNAFU

Submitted by on

I'm reposting SNAFU which used to be on Sapphire's site but which has now become unavailable. I was asked to do so by several readers including our own Web Mistress. I have tidied up a number of typos and other mistakes, though Grammarly doesn't appear to recognise proper English (ie UK variety) in terms of spelling so it nearly drove me to distraction.

Am I correct

in thinking that the size of tasters or adverts for books are getting bigger - except mine of course and one or two others, and is this fair because it appears that one or two of them would take up half a page of broadsheet and certainly pretty well fill my screen as I scroll down them.

Perhaps I'm getting old and crabby, but it doesn't encourage me to want to post much at all.

Being Christina Chase

Submitted by on

I'm rereading this wonderful story by Admiral Krunch which is one of my comfort reads. It has lots of laughs and also tears but it ticks all my boxes and I would thoroughly recommend it to those who haven't encountered it yet, but be warned it is addictive being well planned.

Yet more drama ensues as Cathy goes about her everyday life.

'Girl' a film by Lukas Dhont

Submitted by on

I have just watched a DVD of the film 'Girl' by Lukas Dhont, with a phenomenal performance by Victor Polster as Lara a transsexual teenager who wants to be a ballerina. I found it moving, heart rending and uplifting and occasionally humorous. I don't want to spoil the plot but I do recommend you watch it.

It appears that there has been some controversy about it and using a CIS actor to play the main character, I think he plays it very sympathetically and authentically.

The Ambassador's Wife - Epilogue.
Part 1 of 2.
By
Angharad.

We arrived at Heathrow and during the half an hour or so it took to clear immigration and have our luggage collected - remember I was with a VIP, and ostensibly, although I was on extended leave, I considered I was still protecting Rosie, although in reality, she was probably baby-sitting me.

It's been a long time...

I have been busy with university but my module sort of finished a few days ago, I have to wait for the results to see what happens next. With this lock-down business, I feel like I've been in a strange place but I shall be returning to work for a couple of months before retiring altogether. In a way the lock-down has given me an insight to that and I'm quite looking forward to it. I was hoping to do all sorts of things to my house but the stocks and shares ISA I had is now much reduced so that's a bit of a pain.

With both of Cathy's parents now deceased the only thing tying her to Bristol appears to be their house.

While visiting to tie up some loose ends, Cathy is forced to put on her superhero costume (metaphorically at least) to save her former neighbours from their burning house – with Simon as her sidekick.

With her mission a success all that is left is to plan her father’s funeral and how to deal with her objectionable aunt.

If only they were the only issues she would have to worry about in the coming weeks.

Easy as Falling Off a Bike

Sorry no Bike this weekend

Submitted by on

It's the anniversary of my son's death and I've been up in Wales. He used to work in the Brecon Beacons National Park so we go up there to feel near him. It's also a place of amazing scenery, wild life and geology and very popular with walkers and hikers. Today, the weather was very clear so we were able to see Pen y fan, the highest point in South Wales, the neighbouring mountains of Corn Du and the Crybin, all of which are over 800 metres and the Monmouthshire Black Mountains to the east.

How does life keep getting more complicated for “Lady Catherine”? It’s as easy as falling off a bike!

Cathy finds herself in hot water more often than a tea bag, and brews up a steaming “cuppa” trouble! Daring rescues, Telly interviews, flailing yard brushes and leaping dormice — it all seemed like a good idea at the time! Between adventures, there still seems to be time enough to for a poignant interlude with a troubled student, a frightening crisis for Stella, and some sobering considerations of her relationship with Simon.

Our simple girl just doesn’t seem to be able to keep things simple as her ongoing adventures continue!

Sorry too tired to write tonight.

It's been a trying week, far too many hours worked though I did learn that I'd passed my university exam so can proceed to the next level - it's like a very expensive computer game at times. Today, Saturday, is the anniversary of my son's death and I drove up to Wales and back, getting on for three hundred miles with a very early start.

Help stop the culling of badgers in the UK

Submitted by on

For anyone who has an address in the United Kingdom, please sign the petition to stop the culling of badgers. It's being done to supposedly prevent the spread of bovine TB, which is a serious disease. However, the science doesn't back up the killing of badgers and may make it worse by causing perturbation. This is the movement of badgers caused by change in the population through culling.
