A view to a ... what?

[nineveh_uk]

Alas, I went to M&S and the skirt didn’t fit, the elasticated waist leaving the fabric bunched across the back. I’m going to look out for some fabric along the same lines and make my own instead. I was also disappointed with the T-shirt I tried it on with, which had an off-centre V-neck that made me look like I had a hunchback. Quality control, what quality control?

swooop has written fic about Uncle Paul and Barbara (though not, before you all run screaming Uncle Paul/Barbara). I really must get on with finishing my Compleat Wimsey-fic List - I've got the content, it's just sorting it all out and deciding whether I dare risk adultfanfiction.net to check if anything is there.

Amazon has interesting audio-book for sale: The Contract: Complete & Unabridged (Lord Peter Wimsey Mystery), by Gerald Seymour. Set against a backdrop of the treacherous East/West German border, a journey into redemption for a disgraced British army officer requires the defection of a top flight Soviet scientist.

The mind boggles even as it scents possibilities, gives tongue loudly, and starts to chase.

ETA: I have bravely investigated adultfanfiction.net (under a false name, natch), and discovered that there is no v. rude Wimsey-fic there (writers of v. rude Wimsey-fic, here’s your chance for fame!), but there is an Antonia Forest story: Giles/Nicola. What next, Chalet School tripletcest? Joey/Jem? Miss Annersley/Gaudenz?

I think someone said it wasn't write-able, which set off a sort of Sordello reaction.

I think the creepiest thing about the Giles and Nicola story was, I think as someone pointed out when slemslempike found it last time, at that point Giles must have been away at sea since Nicola was about nine.

Ah. Given my own tendency to say "Go on, you know you want to" about occasionally barking fic ideas, perhaps I ought not to throw stones at this one, but ... it is still Giles/Nicola. And I hadn't thought of it, but yes, nine.
