Oh, I did enjoy this and, if I may say so, you've got a very nice style of writing! Your depiction of office life was spot on (I've been there and done it) and I liked the twist in the tale in that the POV was from an older woman (well, it was a twist for me because for some reason I was expecting a younger woman); and I loved the humour:

"How are the brussel sprouts?"

So much good stuff here!

Thanks for sharing.

Oh you won't believe how much you've made my day by writing this review! Thank you so much. I so hoped that that was how the fic would be read - thinking it was a younger woman and then realising she wasn't quite the character you thought. It was entirely deliberate, and I'm bouncing up and down to know it worked!!
Thank you so much again for the lovely comments :o)

Oh, you're very welcome! And I'm so glad I got the nuances and subtleties right (I always worry that I miss those!) It was a very good idea.

By the way, I'm Noble and shooting2kill.

Hey, no, seriously, I'm still hyper that someone 'got' it. And I was checking out your LJ - the dentist thing - OMG *shudders*. I'm going to friend you if that's okay :o)
