This soooo merits a List :-

1. I liked your Claudia a lot. The interaction with her and Helen was first rate, particularly the sniping about Nick.

2. The flying through the air bit was beautifully written and very funny.

3. “You’re welcome. Sounds like a lovely name - compensation for its looks?” “I would’ve given it a better name.

Inspired !! (Ps how the hell do people maage the italic's bits in comments, can someone tell me so I can do it?)

4. The shark bit and using the dead one as a floatation device creased me up laughing. Loved the mental image it conjured.

5. Really liked Lester and the ending.

6. Love your creatures, as ever. You seem to be as much of an encyclopoedia of them as Connor!

I must write/post my own contribution to this listing! Will try and do something this weekend, honest!

a. a list? awww. *blushes*

1. glad you liked it; yeah, Helen keeps striking me (in canon) as a very territorial person, when it comes to Nick.

2. thank you; I wrote that after its plausibility was checked by real paleontologists on the DML.

3b. italics (without the spaces)

5. my Lester muse says thank you.

6. thank you; to be honest, pseudoxanthus is a creation of my brain, not real at all...cetiosaurus, on the other hand, is real (first sauropod discovered in England and Europe)

6b. I'm looking forwards to it; no rush, mind you - take your time.

Well I didn't distinguish real from made up, and liked them both!

Heehee. Liked it. Good voices, especially Claudia, and Martha was fun. Loved Claudia's long-suffering sort of thought process. And Helen was just the right level of sarcastic.

Good story. Thanks.

should we have another Gutter Plot Bunny Challenge, with or without chocolate?
