As the Sun beat down they lay on the ground and you could almost hear them talk. It turned out it was just Ethel with her lawnmower. Still, she knows what she likes. Bogey had guided them carefully through the wild country, past the most notorious gathering places of the Ogres, avoiding as many bridgesContinue reading “27. Fat Larry and the Charnel House.”

Quotes from Pooh Bear
My GF says I look like Pooh “You’re braver than you believe and stronger and smarter than you think.” “Think it over, think it under.” “Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.” “People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.” “It is more fun to talkContinue reading “Quotes from Pooh Bear”

26. For whom the Trolls Bell.
I suppose it was an artful escape. Hanny at her peak; though Peter would have preferred a peak at Hanny. He was so far out on the relationship now. He knew he owed her his life but could not be sure what she might want in return. If she demanded undying love he had itContinue reading “26. For whom the Trolls Bell.”

I was going to start with ‘mirror’ but that is just a bad Physicists joke and I am a bad Physicist. When working through chapter 24 tonight and had to look up quite a few words.

The tale continues – I am back in Casablanca

In a twirl of mysticism the Sun sang, and she wants us all to know that she gets tired too and is glad of the night so she can rest. The quartet trudged south though still in high spirits. They wereContinue reading “Chapter 7 -At the sign of the Slug and Rider.”
Chapter 6 – What happens next?
They sat together in the Great Hall. Now they were seven, Queen Dillberry would have to play keyboards. Rooty toot toot! The pondering had long since finished and all seven were now deep in dialogue. Peter was more than happy with his newly acquired underclothing, though a little perturbed at the potential embarrassment and inherentContinue reading “Chapter 6 – What happens next?”
