Yes, it's 5pm on Saturday (at least, it is here in the UK) and I still haven't posted the next part. Not only that, but I didn't reply to your comments on the previous section. I'm sorry.
The trouble is (
cue sympathetic violins), I haven't had a night in since last Monday, due to back-to-back rehearsals followed by last night's concert. Add to that a fantastic story I'm BRing for someone else plus time online to say farewell to Wendy, and there just ain't enough free hours in the day!
Anyway, not a lot here to reply to, except to say thanks for the encouragement. Tank, I'm operating a different posting policy to my usual one. The old policy was to finish neatly at the end of a scene. The new policy is to find as many mini-cliffhangers as possible to torture...um...keep my readers interested and coming back for more. <g>

(part 8 coming in about 5 hours' time, after I've had my dinner and ogled sufficiently at Dean Cain in the Out Of Time DVD I just rented
