bistokids - Discovered in a Christmas Cracker, January 3rd

Jan 03, 2013 14:49

Happy New Year, all. In well under the wire, for possibly the first time in my life, but it's so long since I've posted that everything looks strange and different, so I'm just crossing my fingers and hoping all the coding still works the same.

Bad Joke )

Oh, brilliant - thank you! You had me worried for a few lines, though *g*

Funny and sweet, with a happy ending. I particularly liked, "Where was a squadron of angry Russian spies or a good nuclear explosion when you needed one?", and the chips with curry sauce. Wonderful!

Hee, I worried myself for a bit! It all played out rather more angstily (which, if it's not a word, should be!) in its original form - actually I think Murphy saved the day! Thanks for the lovely comment :)

Looks perfectly good to me, coding-wise and story-wise! Although I agree with M above - you had me worried for a few minutes! Thank you!

Thank you - and thanks for sorting this all out, I don't write much these days but I couldn't pass this up - the panic has become part of my Christmas!

I like how you started out with the lads at odds but resolved it by the end. Cowley made me laugh, ordering Bodie to fix things. He's a smart man. Thanks!

That he is! :) Thank you - I'm glad you liked the resolution. It certainly wasn't guaranteed! However, I'm pretty sure curry sauce fixes most things ;)

Oh this is lovely! Just the perfect treat - the voices and the humour are spot on, and I loved every bit of it. Thank you!

Thanks! :D I love all positive feedback, of course (who doesn't?!) but the one thing I love most is being told the voices work - because that's the bit I sweat over the most. So doubly thank you - you've made my day.
