I wrote Trish's rap quite spontaneously then had to try and organise some rhythm to it. It's not a medium I enjoy as few of the exponents of it don't possess clear diction and it tends to sound like a series of rhythmic groans. However, I can accept like all presentation forms, it isn't easy to get it to balance in meter and rhyme. I doubt I shall try it again, which might please some of my regular readers, but felt the inclusion of it given the abilities of the character involved was a distinct possibility. However, she is much cleverer than the poor old dear who reports on them.

As for other bits and pieces, I've done a short story to make you think and one to make you feel good, so unless my muse torments me enough to do something else I shall take it easy over the holiday and just try and keep Bike going. To all my readers old and new - I have just one thing to say, after thank you.
