When I started writing Luck Be A Lady, it was begun as a take-off on an idea presented to me by Prudence Walker. When I began telling the tale, I had an ending in mind.

For all those who have gone before, when do the butterflies settle down?

A few weeks back there was a bit of dialogue about making payments (to Hat box)that remain anonymous and protect payer from other exposure (e.g. credit card statements). There are pre-paid credit cards (Visa, Mastercard intended as gift cards) that can be purchased with cash at a variety of outlets. These can be used on-line e.g. with Amazon. These will provide sufficient curtain of privacy or limit financial exposure when dealing on-line for one off transactions. There is a small charge for the card but the simplicity makes it worthwhile.

While I was washing up after dinner, my computer anti-virus software picked up a nasty, which it has dealt with. I have no idea whence it came, any more than I understand the minds which create them. I suspect that they are created by adolescent minds - irrespective of actual age, and are probably male. I'm not sure whether I want to punish them severely or pity them. As no harm was done, maybe the latter this time, on previous occasions it has caused damage and I didn't feel so amicable.

While I might be cutting my own throat, hit and comment-wise with this, I feel it's only fair to let everyone know that Luck Be A Lady is incomplete, ending with Chapter 8. There WAS a chapter 9, but I have decided that it is non-canon, and it will NOT be re-posted here, or anywhere else.

Since I wrote the story, so much has happened in my life and it seems my muse has gone on semi-permanent vacation. Thus, the story remains in it's unfinished state, with no inspiration in sight for a close.

Hi folks,

I'm happy to tell you, the DNS issues from around lunchtime CET today are solved now. I also fixed a few mistakes at the forum software itself. I hope everything is now running smoothly.

I'm very sorry having to tell you, that since 12:00 CET there are issues finding Hypatia's Garden. As far as I know, it's a DNS issues somewhere along the line. The server itself is still working nicely.

So as it unfortunately is out of our sphere of influence, I hope it will be resolved soon.

Fictionmania is down, who knows for how long. Few more days perhaps at the best but thats what was said already a few weeks ago. last i heard the server was there and the Task Force was doing the programing. Did they hit a snag, Did it not get across the border? How long will it be down. Unknown.

I had a facebook account that I had totally forgotten about; never used it; real name and everything. Well, both my granddaughters found me there, but then it degraded to the usual stuuupid crap. Then some of my Muslim friends found me there. I never thought I would ever worry about being outed again.

Well, I cancelled it, myspace, and every other on line chat group I had. Today, I was checking google, and someone had taken my name and information and combined it with the picture of a really HOTTT!!!! stripper. NOT GOOD.

I am regretting a lot right now.

At last I got the next chapter of Maiden finished, and it's waiting to be posted at the site I always give precedence to with this story. Once it's posted there, I'll be putting it up here.

Good news everyone...

Next episode of Totally Insane should be finished as soon as we can get Kylie out of the loo, she got locked in. Only joking, it's nearly drafted, so should be posted towards the end of the week. So if you're planning a holiday....

I want to thank everyone for their assistance in helping me find this story. Kristina LS was able to send it to me. I really appreciate the way so many people are willing to help each other here on BCTS. Thank you all!

I am sorry if this offends anyone, I do not intend to.

My preferences are:
From child to adult, M to F, most real life style, some types of magical or si-fi transition, some mild femdom.

Having recently reached my 65th annual celebration of life, I have decided to retire ...

Holly Logan.

For the last few days, when I open my browser to Big Closet, the Log-on/Register option is not on the right side near the top. So far I've had to leave the site and log back on several times over an hour or two before the option appears. Am I the only one having this problem or am I missing something?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
