BUMPING OFF TONY

Poor Oscar shut his eyes while he tried to estimate the ever-increasing monetary cost of this pointless exercise. Then he heard the fateful words …

UNDERSTANDING & COMPROMISE

“You can have that in three words, son,” said Reggie. “Understanding and compromise.”

THE TURF ACCOUNTANT

However, Briac Gawain Caratacus, known to his friends and associates as the Beloved One, was far from normal and most definitely not the personification of mediocrity.

THE LITTLE STORYTELLER.
