It's Stretcher time again, and I thought a brief piece of fiction would not go amiss. I don't know why, but I couldn't help but make the challenge (end every sentence with a word containing a double letter) the subject, in a way, of it all.

Thanks, folks.
It was the first idea that came to me as I read the Stretcher challenge - I had to end with a word that should have a double letter, but (in context) doesn't. Rules are there to be 
stretched, right?

Hi David 
I felt this would have been ended better as "Pridde goes before a ffal" (or faal). Sorry you're disappointed with your score.

Not disappointed with the score, disappointed with myself for not making it very, very obvious! I felt the scores were very fair indeed.
