Well, this is real EG-stuff, nowhere near the edge.
Anyhow, when are you going to get round to writing anything yourself?
Nithe arth, btw...

I don't know. The way things are going, I'll be waking up next to a woman next

Heyho. I knew you could do it. If only I were a scout ...

Re: Lee. I'm in some turmoil right now. For weeks, I think I'm going to be unemployed, and then three jobs all turn up at once.

Never Again seems to have stalled ... it is 1966 is it?

1. No thanks. We couldn't bear the woggle jokes.
2. Mind if I plough on then?
3. Up to you. I'm not leading. I'm nudging from behind (so to speak)

2. No. Sorry to have been so crap. There's a chance I'll be in South Devon (Starcross-ish) about the first week of Aug. If you need anything. Like a postcard.
Otherwise: "He was a Londoner for a start". Steady...

You're not crap. You lurk too much, but crap you're not.
If you're over, whenever, we should meet. Says I anyhow. Let me know if you want to, and I'll get. I could drag AB along too, if you want.
I'll see how Lee goes. I've written quite a lot more, but there's only one part any good, and it's got me hooked. It's where he's waiting to die the first time, and he's isolated (from a world that's bent on killing him, with industrial efficiency) by the hood on his head. It goes on and on, and he's unsure whether it's because something's unravelling, or because time feels like that when you're about to die. He can't think straight for pure terror either.
It's quite a challenge, writing convincingly about an experience like that, but I think it's got something. It's surely too good to lose in the middle of a load of other guff, anyhow. So I don't know what to do with what I've got, quite.
Then the rest of it () is just coming out Gunson again. There's no point doing the same thing twice, so (unless fresh inspiration strikes) it'll probably all still be waiting for you.
Hope things work out for you and yours. Important times. More, far more than this load of b*llocks.

If you are around in the UK, trout, then it would be cool-but-scary to meet. My contact details are on U148580. If I don't reply it is because I haven't got the email, or because it has been binned as spam by one of the filters.
If it is a Boys Own Meet-up, that's fine too. I have more delicacy than is always obvious.

A mini-meet would be sound. Won't have a lot of time, so should try to do you all in one go. Have to think of logistics.

Mrs Zen Posted Jul 15, 2004
The footnote is the best bit.
I am in the Cotswolds, and Boots is in South West London; my guess is that we could both do either fairly easily. Pin is another matter entirely, of course.
[email protected] gets me, barring random acts of server failure, of which there have been many lately.

I'll (anxiously) give it a whirl once we have our tickets.
Wot Ho, Trout!
Mrs Zen Posted Jul 15, 2004
Cool. Let us know if you want our own sweet selves, or if escorts would be appropriate.

Seems like you've just volunteered me for a gig eh friend! Cheers.
Less of the South West London and more of the home counties if you don't mind. Think Old Spice and Trout have a pretty good idea of my old exact location doesn't look nearly as pretty as it used to mind.
Escorts!!! Could they really cope with Patrick or Dimitri?
When do the sheiks arrive? Ravager pup is here till the end of the month - at least he won't embarrass. The other two are possibly a Will and Grace too far!
Take care
boots (off to find some clean black clothes)
