“Where?” He held the mobile close while he waited for the ( Read more... )

As Kevin entered the bar he could see that Sarah had already made herself very familiar with the tequila on offer. A row of empty glasses sat in front of her, as she played with peanuts and talked with the barman. Taking a deep breath and hoping for midnight Kevin moved towards his sister. “Heh Kevin, come on over and meet Frank, Frank is our very ( Read more... )

No Way Home

Part 1 of 5

“Hi love, I am just leaving the office finally, how you doing?” Scotty had to swap the phone while signing off endless invoices for the kitchen. It had been a nightmare of a day, 2 staff off with flu, another so upset about the latest twist in their love life they seemed incapable of telling the difference between parsley and ( Read more... )
