A Place for the Cactus

The door shut. They had all gone. The sound of it was soft, and it was final. Tom Pullings had been looking at her all morning, all

Oh, excellent! The knickers themselves sound lovely, and the shy newlyweds are pure delight. :-)

it occurredto me after, he would not have needed the doctors book for the palms, maybe he did need it for the cactus.

*smiling smiling* As always filled with cute little details, humorous and warmth :) Cactuses :) *snort* You ARE priceless!!!

I am happy. They are very sweet, and fun to write.

They are pretty cute. Wonder what Jack thought of the stitching.

Utterly delightful! And this fills two challenges for the price of one - The Oakum Meme for the wedding night of Tom Pullings and The Flowery Drawers one too.

Greater love hath no man than he embroiders the knickers of his bride-to-be...! Love it.

Yes. They seemed to go together. Tom Pullings is quite an appealing fellow, i find. I think Nell will find herself very happy in (and out,) of her cactus pants.

They seem to lend themselves to a 'G ' wedding night story. Tom P seems to me to be fairly at home with men, but I can imagine him stricken with shyness with a respectable girl-- even his own wife!
