Woo-hoo!

Another chapter! What a great present the night before my big trip. We are leaving for travels in the east Baltic, so I am especially happy that Marian and Robin have made it to the Channel crossing. Hope Luna can get her bath soon, but that was a great disguise for her. Alice is certainly a smart one, which is good since Gizzy is so annoyingly talented at tracking. This was a lovely flashback to their betrothal time.

Now back to packing. (I wish my packing were as simple.)

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and that my posting was so timely! More adventures await Robin and Marian once they get to France, rest assured.

Great update!! Oh, I was so sure disaster was coming for Marian on the ship! Am looking forward to France. I love your Robin...a heady mix of gallantry and rogue. (sigh)

marj, I can't BELIEVE you are reading when you are due to leave in mere hours! Well, yes I can. LOL I'm glad you found the update before you left. :D

Thanks for your comment! And I'm pleased to hear you enjoy my interpretation of Robin. He is pretty much as I see him, that wonderful mix of gallantry, rogue, protectiveness and deep caring.

Tension!

Woopee! Another chapter! Can I just say that when Marian got on the boat I just HAD to scroll to the bottom to see if Robin showed up because I couldn't stand the tension.

I love that you have given them the opportunity to truly be together in your story.

Can't wait for more.

I was amused to hear that you had to scroll to the bottom to make sure Robin made it! I'm glad this story could encourage that kind of anticipation. Thanks for commenting!

Great chapter can't wait till the next. Keep up the good work.

[missalee]

Thank you! Hopefully I won't keep you waiting too long!

Whew! I was holding my breath there for awhile, I didn't think Robin was going to make it on the ship. O_o

Wonderful chapter as always, can't wait for more! :D

[missalee]

Oh, there's no way I could keep them apart for very long! Too much of that on the show has made me enjoy seeing and writing them together way more than apart. Thank you for commenting!
