What better way to have a summer romance than to have it occur in the place and time of more romance historical novels: London during the Regency period, specifically November 1814 to just after Waterloo. Note changes through out.

Prelude:

September 1,1066

Easy As Finding More Work.

part 390.

As I rode home the rain started–some summer this was proving to be. I was quite wet before I got back to the house and by the time I’d wiped the bike down, was feeling cold. I know the bikes are carbon framed, but they still have metal components that can rust.

I snuggled down with Simon, I had missed his warm muscular body and his strong arms which were currently holding me against him. “This is nice,” I said.

“Erm, what?” he said sleepily.

“You’d nodded off. Am I that boring?”

“No, but neither were you up at five o’clock this morning.”

“Oh poor Simon,” I cooed.

Chapter 15 — Diana the hunter

“You know, if you keep doing this, you may eventually succeed and kill yourself,” Zeis grinned from above her.

Easy as losing the original episode.

part 387.

The original episode was lost when I tried to load an image with it. I hadn't made a back up copy. This one has therefore cost me a whole evening. I hate computers and all things related to them.

"What do you mean?" I asked Neal.

"You've been away a long time, Cathy."

"I'm sorry, but some idiot shoved a knife in my lung."

"Yes, I know. I came to see you in hospital."

"Did you? I'm sorry, I don't remember."

I had been home an hour, Stella had come to collect me from the hospital. As soon as she left me alone, I was out to the garage and checking over my bikes.

"Just what do you think you're doing?" said a voice from the door.

"Playing with the spiders, why?"

"Ugh! I don't like spiders."

part: 380

Hospitals are boring at the best of times. I'd read the latest Cycling Weekly, Procycling and Cyclesport several times. Lunch was far from inspiring - hotpot, with a novelty twist, it was cold. The old lady across from me asked me what I had ordered.

"Lancashire hotpot, I don't think it's what I got though."

"You nearly lost everything? What you mean the car and your wallet?"

Simon looked at me? "What? No. Cars and wallets can be replaced, people can't–especially someone as special as you."

In which our Technicolor Angel's gruesomy dark side emerges, and she tolchoks me soundly from gulliver to yarbockles, leaving your humble narrator one bruised and weepy and disillusioned young devotchka, who sadly concludes that she must leave the employ of this certifiable bozova, who has suddenly turned all brutal-like...

"Chockies and flowers?" Dianne echoed. "Do you mean—"

Gillian twisted her mouth to the side in a slightly crooked smile. "I'm afraid that Roger might be falling for our Bel."

Prelude, Chapters 1-3

by shalimar

What better way to read a Summer Romance than to have it occur in the time and place most used by romance novelists: London during the Regency Period, specifically: From November 1814 to just after Waterloo?

Prelude:

September 1,1066

“Thou art the ‘Guardian of the Rose?’”

Easy As Staying On A Bike & Winning The Gold Medal!
by Angharad
part: 374.

The afternoon wore on, tediously at times, as I tried not to move my painful ribs. Even going to the loo was a pain, the sitting and standing and bending to wipe the nether region; not a bit funny. I dozed now and again, but would wake myself up either by moving or coughing which produced sharp pain in my chest.

Easy As Falling Off A Hospital Bed.
by Bonzi
part: 373

I sat in the chair trying not to move too much, the bruising I'd received from falling off the bed was now becoming painful, and even breathing was hurting. I think I'd probably bashed some ribs a little too hard. If by non-disclosure, I was going to get out of the hospital, I would keep my suffering to myself.

The next few days were as boring as before, perhaps more so as I was staying awake more of the time. Stella came in every day in time for Dr Kelly's coffee break or lunch. If he was busy, she stayed and chatted with me.

Prelude, Chapters 1 & 2

by shalimar

What better way to have a summer romance than to use the most common historical place and time used by romance novelists, London, during the Regency period. In this case November 1814 to after Waterloo.

Prelude:

September 1,1066

“Thou art the ‘Guardian of the Rose?’”

Easy As Falling Off, Like.
by Angharad
part: 369

It seemed that apart from recuperation, my purpose in being in hospital was to set up a dating agency. This wasn't just because of Neal and Trish, but someone else who should be a little better known to you.

Easy As Breathing On a Ventilator.

part:367

I felt like I was floating in treacle. Sometimes the light would be there and sometimes it was dark. I wondered if the darkness finally had got me. Something in my brain kept telling me, ‘it wasn’t over,’ then I’d float some more.

Author's Note: I wasn't going to continue this story, thinking it had run its course and 365 episodes is enough for most people. However, I had emails and PMs (not PMS!)which convinced me otherwise. Also I couldn't spoil a special person's birthday, so here's the next one.
