Stephen, you were one of the first ever readers of The Blue (when it was still barely there in fact) and have always been very encouraging, so it's nice to know you've discovered The Stairwell too. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you think it smacks a little of Auckland University!

Very satisfying stuff.Mary McCallumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07482261103185786111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688274121226963086.post-30074408626338929362008-12-16T20:27:00.000+13:002008-12-16T20:27:00.000+13:00Great story, unsurprisingly from the author of "Th...Great story, unsurprisingly from the author of "The Blue".

I have one that I'm just wondering what to do with. <BR/><BR/>I hope Issy is feeling better too.Rachael Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07690377694600952816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688274121226963086.post-45259770944886910552008-12-12T07:10:00.000+13:002008-12-12T07:10:00.000+13:00I love your story, Mary.
