What's New!

What can I say about the update this time other than to say RL hasn't been kind to the four of us, a change in jobs times two, illnesses and an encounter with the Judoon are our only excuses... that's right I said the Judoon - for those who have seen the first episode of the new series of 'Doctor Who' three guesses where Linda works!!

Only two stories this time one of which has been long awaited...

The first is a Dick Turpin story by Angela whose world is but a stage, and as quoted on 'Doctor Who' this week "57 Academics stood up and cheered".

And the second story is ... yes, you guessed it!

Part 10 of Maggie's little epic is now available for reading!!

Updates on this webpage are rather like waiting for a bus - you wait for ages just for the sight of one and then two come along at the same time...

Lots of action on the webpage this time we've had a little overhaul or two and added stories into almost each section.  For those that asked about Maggie's story Thicker than Water... Part 10 is currently being rewritten before going into editing - so anybody emailing encouragement to her would be welcome.

Oh... and for those that noticed the Wallpapers section has gone missing and new buttons have appeared out of nowhere, it's just part of the upheaval due to happen sometime in the New Year - we think! 

So consider this a slightly late Halloween and Christmas present combined.

Regards,

Carole.

Did you miss us?  We missed ourselves!  A combination of things, really, all to do with Real Life interrupting our plans and computers deciding to go belly-up before Linda had done all of her back-ups.  Deep joy, as I'm sure you'll all appreciate.

Anyway, we're back, and the process of overhauling the webpage continues apace.  This time around it's the seaQuest page, with the others all due either a revamp or a long overdue update.  We have further plans for the new year, but we've become a little paranoid about mentioning them out loud, just in case the gremlins are feeling a little bored.  We'll keep you all informed as the situation changes. 

We hope you enjoy the stories in this update. Now that we're back on course, there'll be more to come - hopefully when we actually intend to update!

Hi, and apologies for the long break between updates.  This is basically an update to explain that there isn't an update... yet.  I've been distracted by stuff like exams, training and a stubborn server that keeps throwing me off the computer, so rather than one humungous update, there will be little ones, as I cunningly lull the computer into a false sense of security.  (I hope!)  Thanks for your patience.  This time there's going to be an update to the Stargate page, with another instalment of Maggie's phenomenal story and hopefully this will be followed by lots of goodies.    The sun has been spotted occasionally of late, and as I'm solar powered, this is good news for everyone!

The year continues to spin itself out and we find ourselves at another Christmas, Yule or Solstice.  (Or Hanukka or Kwanzaa or any one of the other festivals that happen around this time of year).  Welcome to all who have dropped by.  Once again we have managed a small update, as opposed to the large update we had planned.  Once again, Angela has been the hard working member of the group, coming through despite the occasional dark muttering.  I warn you all - I've promised to let up on the nagging next year, so you'll be at my tender mercy when it comes to updates!  Of course, I haven't promised not to nag Carole....

I hope that you have a wonderful time over the Holidays, that your loved ones remain safe and happy and that all the right wishes come true.  See you in the New Year!

Hi All,

As you can see - I'm back!!

This is the first update I've attempted since I went on my World Tour... Phileas Fogg eat your heart out - I did it in 78 days and if you want a taste of where I went have a look at the pictures down the side!!  (If anyone wants a copy of one of the photos just let me know.)

We have three stories this time including the next part of Maggie's little Epic "Thicker than Water"  (Word of Warning - this is the last of the stockpile and we now have to wait for Maggie to give us the next part!), you will also find a story from yours truly in the Pirates of the Caribbean section!

Just a little piece of advice if you are diabetic hold my Pirates story as far away as possible - it has been described as sickly sweet! Noel Coward has a lot to answer for and all blame for this story lies with Linda and Angela - ha! challenge me will you!!

There will be another two stories in a couple of days they just missed the deadline... methinks I need to crack the whip more often!!

Well, don't just sit there go find those stories and read them, but do remember that feedback even just a "I liked that" will inspire us to write more and might even get more updates from us.

"Cough, cough... if I could have your attention... squawk!!"

"O'Neill, I believe it is my turn to speak with the Tau'ri, if you will be silent I will remove my hands from your throat..."

"Hear me people of the Tau'ri, I Teal'c of Chulak have the honour to announce the winner of the September competition and also the start of the October competition."

"Teal'c,  I think you can let Jack go now... he's starting to turn blue!"

"Very well, DanielJackson... now as I was saying before I was interrupted, the chosen calendar was of course Hercules and Iolaus discovering the Dark Side of Morris Dancing... we on Chulak have something similar that requires the use of large wet thrackis leaves... and the winner of the competition is... ping"

"Do you know that Special Ops does come in useful for something occasionally, now as I was saying before Teal'c tried to throttle me, there's not only a winner but a runner up as well... both of whom will be notified by email after this webpage is updated."

"Now as for the October competition if you check out the three calendars up top, you'll notice that yet again one of the web-mistresses cried craven and passed the buck onto yourselves." 

"All you have to do is pick one and email this address dragonfly1956@wildmail.com to be entered into the draw, the closing date for this is the week before Halloween that's Saturday 23rd October... 'cause that's when Part 6 of Maggie's 'Thicker Than Water' will be coming to a webpage near you!"

"Have to run now... literally, I'm thinking I hear Teal'c and it sound's like he's headed in this direction!"

"Ciao."
