Oh great...thanks. That pressure I mentioned being lifted from my shoulders has now, thanks to you, returned. 😢

@great-big-stees saidit's only a game, and you are doing it for us, your friends, remember?
Well surely not to heap a load on my, momentarily, relieved shoulders.

@very-rusty saidAge doesn't necessarily stop creativity - maybe Stees is a late bloomer?

@great-big-stees saidI only have worn bloomers once! 😉
I have NEVER worn bloomers but I may try them because one of my mantras is, "Try everything, at least, once". 😉

@ponderable saidI feel that I must warn you that I anticipate running close to the deadline, as usual.
With the due date 7th of July we now entering the final days.
Please note, that you can submit reworked versions of your Story up to that date.
So if you are in doubt I would suggest to send a Version of your Story now rework it in the next days if you are in the mood.

The editor in me thinks "across the pallid lawn" would have been better. 😉
Hmmmm, on second thought, I like "unruly".
